tuxracer virgin - linux love story

i just had a very plesant experience.  i pacman'd tuxracer the other day, i have only played frozen bubble in linux before so i wondered what all the other games were like.  the first time i tried to run it it complained about glx and envisioning some complex procedure to get it going i went to bed.

so, imagine my joy today when i uncomment load "glx" in my xorg conflict and find tuxracer runs, albeit terribly!  so i hunt again through the forum and discover dri - so i uncomment load "dri" and find that the handy dri modes section is already present and uncomment.

i restart x and tuxracer works perfectly with 3d acceleration - a perfect linux experience
