I have a nvidia card, and when using the nvidia driver that have 3D hardware capability, the kernel assign an interrupt to it. My problem is at this interrupt is shared with one of my sound card. When using the nv driver that doesn't have 3D capability, the kernel doesn't assign an interrupt for this card.
It is very few sound programs using 3D capability and they work very well on my system when using Glut. I don't have much time to play games, so hardware 3D is not so important to me.
Ciao,
