Nice ..
after a fresh install, torque compiles out of the box
without having to add any other libs.
Edit:
Providing you choose all the developer stuff for the install

and to get it to run using the nvidia.
I had to make a Kernel Interface layer as one was not available.
but other than that it was seamless.

Just did the same with a Radeon 9000, so you're not limited to nvidia. Just uncomment the 'agpgart' loader in rc.modules, 'dri' and 'glx' in XF86config, and use the 'radeon' driver. Hardware acceleration should work OOB with the drm drivers. If you are going to take advantage of the new XFS filesystem, don't forget to get the extra kernel modules or you'll have problems at post-install boot. It's nice to get torque up and running so quickly on a new install.
