[Leaplist] [Fwd: xinerama + opengl + nvidia]

I'd sent this to the PC_Support list last week, but it never showed up so
I'm going to hang it here. Phil, any idea why that may be? Thanks...

Anybody ever get this to work? I can get OpenGL without xinerama... but
the moment that I enable xinerama, I get multiple screens with no opengl
support. Scouring google, I get very little information... mostly that you
can't have an opengl window go from one screen to another, and a couple
that claim that opengl just doesn't work under xinerama.

According to nvidia, they _do_ support opengl inside xinerama (see
http://us.download.nvidia.com/solaris/1.0-9742/README/appendix-s.html).

I'm not getting any errors at all in my Xorg.0.log file... in fact, it
claims that glx has loaded for all monitors. Anyone seen this problem?
