[dundee] Nvidia 3-D on Xen in Fedora

[Lee Hughes]

I read a little about this,
something about memory address vs virtual address, seems gfx drivers have HARDCODED memory address, so they are just not compatible with virtual address needed when running virtualised OS'es... you probably need to get the patch driver, to get the thing to work, and then it's going to be 'experimental'.. I particually intersted in geting xp virtual 3d working, so I can kiss goodbye to windows for ever!!!

it's comming....
