That confirms that you have not lost hardware acceleration.

Again, fgl_glxgears is a simplistic application that demonstrates the
use of pbuffers or framebuffer objects.  Have any of your real 3D
applications been affected?

The change in glxgears score is a result of a driver change to enhance
the users experience with some games.  It is unrelated to XOrg 7.1.

There error messages that you are seeing is related to enabling the
accelerated GLX mode of hardware acceleration, a feature that was only
available with NV's proprietary driver until XOrg 7.1.

Please view http://principe.homelinux.net/ for a bit of background.  In
particular try to understand the difference between the X.Org and AIGLX
diagrams about three quarters down the page.  Note the direct rendering
(the hardware acceleration that you would have had previously) line is
unchanged between the two models.

The error message you are referring to is the one generated as the 'GLX
Extension' is attempting to get accelerated indirect 3D rendering started.

Matthew
