You mean it works great except for newer cards, dual-head setups and a
fast X desktop? Yes, but I would not call that great.
That's not true. 8800GT support, at the very least, was added back in
OpenBSD 4.3
according to the changelog.
Is the issue with the 8400GS solved? I think marco@ reported that the
driver maintainers refused to add code that would put the chip into a
useable state. It was clocked down by the bios and the driver was not
clocking it up. Are there any news about that issue?
I'm using two 7600GTs - X works without a hitch in dual head (xrandr) on
the first adapter and appears to be accelerated.
Yes, basic acceleration was there, but I have seen many times that a
programm scrolling (for example firefox) was taking some second to think
about what it was doing. It was not smooth. On intel or supported amd
cards this expirience was not there. So I blame it on the nv driver.
Dual head never worked for me beyond 1280x1024, but I did not try xrandr
lately. Perhaps I should have done that, I was running a 7600GT at that
time too.
Kind regards,
Markus
