Newbie (and perhaps stupid) question: is there a way to remove the nVidia GL, so that one can keep the Mesa ones? ... Or am I obliged to continually remove the latter? As it stands, there two steps necessary whenever I get rawhide updates:
- re-run the nVidia installer whenever the kernel is updated
- remove using --nodeps whenever XFree is updated (since I can't

... or am I asking the impossible / unreasonable?
Sure, if you'd rather do software rendering with mesa, just uninstall the nvidia drivers and reinstall mesa-gl.
I dunno though, let's see, mesa-gl = 0.1 fps for q3a, nvidia = 100 fps for q3a...
I think I'll go with the nvidia gl, and that is my final answer!
