GPL: Mirrors & Guillemot GeForce DDR/DVI. Also steering question.

I'm using the OpenGL Beta 2 patch for GPL and can't get the mirrors to
work properly on my Guillemot GeForce DDR/DVI.  When I set mirrors=1
they flicker horrendously.  M=2 and bottom 1/2 is fine.  Top half
shows whats in the top left corner of screen.  M=3 is flicker city
again but slower.  M=4 is 4 parts, going from bottom to top they are:
Normal, Top of screen, Normal, Top of screen.  I didn't go beyond 4
and 0 is same as 1.  I'm using Guillemot's drivers with DX7a.
  I also have trouble with steering.  I'm using the MS FF Wheel and
have linearity set to full with no hack installed that I remember.
I'm using V1.2 of GPL.  I seem to allways end up weaving down the
straights.  I also get a weird jerk to the right alot on straights.
Is this a setting in the game I can adjust?  Or should I look at a
different wheel.  I'm not REAL please with the MS wheel but I love the
pedals, cept the brake pedal (can't keep squash ball 1/2 from sliding
off to the side).  Kinda leaning toward either the Act Labs with
shifter or a TSW, wish they had a FF TSW.   Any help would be
appreciated.  Especially on the mirrors.

Thanks

In the Open GL settings for your video card, select "Use Block Transfer" for
the Buffer Flipping Mode item.
