It certainly won't hurt. This is just changing the 2D driver, the 3D driver remains the same, but since the new 2D driver will run on more cards, the 3D driver may do so as well. One thing to note about AIGLX support on via hardware is that compiz currently requires non-power-of-two texture support from the driver, and the via DRI driver does not expose that functionality yet. I'm not even sure all via chips _have_ that feature in silicon. AIGLX on its own is just fast indirect GL; it's necessary for compiz, but not sufficient. - ajax -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
