Thursday June 02, 2005 We continue to make great progress in providing wider device support for Solaris on x86/x64. The latest example is the availability of accelerated 3D NVIDIA graphics drivers.
You can find them on the NVIDIA website. We'll get them rolled into a Solaris 10 update as soon as we can. Obviously these drivers work only with NVIDIA graphics chips, which are the ones used in Sun's workstations. These drivers are officially supported on the Quadro series of devices, although we've heard that many people have had success using them with GeForce chipsets as well.
If like me you'd like to see accelerated drivers on other chipsets (such as the ATI chips used in my Acer Ferrari laptop), please drop the vendors a line.
In the meantime, a big thanks to the team at Sun and NVIDIA who made this happen!
