I, too, would like an amd64 driver. With Xorg 6.8.1 now in ports, and the Composite extension working like a charm, I think now would be a great time for one. I just tested out a full screen transparent window drag (officially available and supported in XFCE 4.2.0) and it's slow as molasses, very jumpy. This is where Accelerated graphics support would really come in handy. In linux, with the nvidia driver, this kind of thing is smooth as silk.

Thanks for the support so far!
