NVidia.dsl for DSL
Use this with your working XFree86 setup and an NVidia card for
3d performance..
Read the .info file for proper usage, or the NVidia website for more info
on editing your XF86Config-4 file to use this.

It is in the "testing" area

You may want to mention in the XFree info that .xserverrc needs to be executable. It took me a while to figure out why my rc file kept getting overwritten until I looked into startx to see that it falls back on xsetup.sh if it can't execute .xserverrc. The example file included with the extension is not executable.
That said, I spent about an hour trying to get this going. I got as far as the nvidia logo before it knocked me back to console with no (EE) messages...so I don't have a clue what I need to change in XF86config

It may be the fact that I installed both extensions without first getting XF86 running properly....that's something to check tomorrow.
