One other thing I haven't seen posted, is the max 3D resolution, if you
start X above 1280x1024 acceleration won't work, you can switch up after
startup, or I least I can, and stiil run acceralted 3d in a window.  I
like to use glcthugha to test these things because it puts a huge strain
on all system resources.  Anyway, for the first time I key press a key in
glcthugha and it responds just shy of immediatlely, as opposed to several
seconds.
