Nv has been ok. W/ dual opterons, even though not especially fast ones, these graphics intensive tasks have been performing well. Googleearth hasn't been working, either because of this issue, or amd64 incompatibility: it works well even with a really slow card on an x86 box.
Googleearth will be very slow without opengl acceleration, so you probably want to stick with the nvidia driver. You should verify that DRI is being activated with glxinfo (should see: "direct rendering: Yes". Also make sure that "eselect opengl list" shows nvidia as the selected implementation. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
