RenderAccel freezes my Geforce2 go (Toshiba 2805-S402)

Besides the problem with nautilus (slows down the system), now i can't use "RenderAccel" Option because it freezes my laptop.

Is anyone having this problem with a Geforce2 go ??

yes, it crash on mine too.
RenderAccel is experiemental and is unstable. That is the reason it was disable by default.

I don't remember glPixelZoom being slow in 3123, but in the new driver, it can take half a second (!!!!) to do a glCopyPixels(0,0,720,486) when glPixelZoom(1,-1) has been called.

i.e.
glPixelZoom(1,-1);
glRasterPos2i(0,486);
glCopyPixels(0,0,720,486);

takes half a second.

There is no good reason for this, glPixelZoom(1,-1) should be optimized, and I believe that it -was- before.

You know of any way around this? It is quite annoying to have to see video and our graphics upside down.

well... I don't know programming but both 3123 and 4191 are slow in opengl for my XP1800+ G2mx 400.
Don't know why? I think driver bugs. Its slow in several other areas.
