Hi Community,

following is my xorg.conf producing an impressive Quad-1600x1200/24 Xinerama Desktop.

OpenGL does NOT work! This has to be fixed by Nvidia!

Yes. It woks, but desktop hardware acceleration is not working. Extremely low performance in Xinerama mode (there is no other choice to have one desktop across four monitors), even with Quad Core Intel CPU. Firefox 4 is totally anusable. I hate this nVidia card. They are not able to make functional drivers. Next time, I will buy ATI. Only way, how to get expensive Quadro NVS 440 fully functional, is to install Windows. Problem is not solvable due to nVidia inability. They are working FEW YEARS to solve this problem, but without any positive result.
