Description Pascal Labit 2004-05-11 05:46:33 UTC 
Ine the Desktop configuration user-doc, there were explanation on how to setup 3d accelaration with ATI or Nvidia and their closed source drivers. This information should be in the handbook also, in the chapter above mentioned. It should also be stated that the closed source drivers are working with xorg-x11R6.7.

Isn't this covered by http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/ati-faq.xml and http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/nvidia-guide.xml ?
Comment 3 Pascal Labit 2004-07-03 05:27:31 UTC 
Yeah but that s the point : if we want to have a chapter about 3d configuration the the desktop configuration guide, those 2 documents should be imho included in it.
Comment 4 Sven Vermeulen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-03 12:05:20 UTC 
The desktop configuration guide is going to disappear in favor of an identically named overview of all desktop-related guides.
Comment 5 Sven Vermeulen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-31 05:08:20 UTC 
Invalidating due to removal of desktop configuration guide
