Working video cards in 3D on Ubuntu 7.04 i386 (kernel: 2.6.20-16-generic) by corwin78 (5):

For good 3D acceleration nVidia proprietary drivers needed.

only Nvidia proprietary driver works on Mandriva Powerpack distribution.

No problems with kernel drivers with it.

with propietary drivers (nvidia-drivers-169.07).

For hardware 3D acceleration, proprietary NVidia drivers install required. Install is simple through pisi graphical or command line procedure (nvidia-glx, nvidia-kernel and nvidia-tools packages are needed). Final configuration of installed drivers requires invoking single cli command #nvidia-xconfig
and for the sake of simplicity – reboot!

need proprietary (nvidia) or highly experimental (Nouveau Gallium3D) driver.
