[Leaplist] debian etch kde 3.5 and amd64 question

[ray]

Well with the arrival of the new HD i was successful at installing 
debian etch amd64 tonight on it and IT DID NOT CRASH, but i also only 
had 1 vid card installed and have not mucked with SLI yet.

2.6.18-3-amd64 is the kernel, and i did, i think successful, install the 
latest nvidia drivers for the amd64.  i had a few errors about not 
finding paths and if the install failed to install pkg-config and X.Org 
SDK/development package, but when i startx i get a very brief flash of 
the Nvidia splash screen.  this normally means the Nvidia drivers are 
working.

now i went to test it via glxgears.  was not installed so i found the 
package and installed it and ran it.  it opens up the standard box, 
although much more clean then i am used to seeing it, but it is not 
reporting any FPS stats to the konsole i started glxgears from.

did i screw something up?  is KDE 3.5 so much different that glxgears is 
not reporting as i am accustom?  what did i screw up?

FYI, i just have my old drive disconnected in order to test it out, i am 
currently back under winXP as i want the full power of the SLI and am 
not going to muck with it further tonight.

thanks.
