Okay - as I installed the 8600 and ran xorg-configure a while ago, it struck me that i haven't actually checked the xorg.conf file...
it would appear that I am currently using the NV driver:
Section "Device"
### Available Driver options are:-
### Values: <i>: integer, <f>: float, <bool>: "True"/"False",
### <string>: "String", <freq>: "<f> Hz/kHz/MHz"
### [arg]: arg optional
#Option "SWcursor" # [<bool>]
#Option "HWcursor" # [<bool>]
#Option "NoAccel" # [<bool>]
#Option "ShadowFB" # [<bool>]
#Option "UseFBDev" # [<bool>]
#Option "Rotate" # [<str>]
#Option "VideoKey" # <i>
#Option "FlatPanel" # [<bool>]
#Option "FPDither" # [<bool>]
#Option "CrtcNumber" # <i>
#Option "FPScale" # [<bool>]
#Option "FPTweak" # <i>

Identifier "Card0"
Driver "nv"
VendorName "nVidia Corporation"
BoardName "GeForce 8600 GT"
BusID "PCI:2:0:0"
EndSection
I'm presuming that as I have a TFT monitor I could uncomment "FlatPanel".
I may also give hardware acceleration a try, I take it I uncomment it and add false?
