Xgl - minimal system req.

Hi there, I wanna test the Xgl on my arch. But I am not so clear about my graph. card. I have nVidia TNT2 with 32MB. It works well in Tuxracer etc. Do you think that is enough? Have I have installed official nvidia drivers to run it? What is your suggestios?

-----------------

update: I have AthlonXP 2600+ and 512MB DDR RAM

Yes, thanx, this is the first thing i have read, but there is a newer cards I have, so i feared of problems with my older one. Of course, i can simply try and switch back to standard x wink

You should try one of the XGL livecds floating around the net and see if it works. I found one a month ago that even sets up proprietary drivers so you get full hardware acceleration.

Yes, I have tried kororaa, but it does not detect my card, it fails X server on no screens found sad I will try another one, i didnt know that is more than kororaa. Thanx

Update - It isnt work in cause of the driver contain in version 7174 and higher my graphic card isnt supported. So I need to try it "hard" in Arch, coz live-cd do not care about older cards sad
