Anybody else lose OpenGL hw acceleration since 3.8+ came out?

Drivers
=====
3.4 No problems
3.6 I can do OpenGL, but the apps crash after you exit (no big deal, but
stupid in any case.)
3.7 ditto
3.8 All OpenGL applications crash on startup
3.9 All OpenGL applications crash on startup

This is very weird and irritating. Anybody ever run into this problem
before?

Try the Omega drivers ( http://www.omegacorner.com )

It turns out that the video BIOS needed updating.

I think there is a patch for 3.9 to fix that
