So NVidia bad?
Intel and ATI good?
Then I must have gotten confused with this:
"*Yade is using OpenGL to display 3D graphics. This currently works
correctly only with NVidia graphic cards (those cards have usually GeForce
in their name), and it is usually buggy with ATI graphic cards (those have
usually Radeon in their name). So if you have an ATI Radeon graphic card,
then skip this section (you should have bought nvidia ;)*."
