Is the GPL patch going to have better GL siupport?  The beta patch is ok,
but I prefer to have real-time mirrors :) and the game won't let me restart
a race when I am using OpenGL.  If I leave a race session and try to come
back in, I get a screen that is the same size as the replay window, while
the other 2/3 of my screen is black.

just wonderin'......

I guess I mistook the talk for "probably going to happen" . :)

There's talk about a v1.1 patch for weeks now, or was
I dreaming...? But as Papyrus patch info released early
would probably endanger national security, we'll just
have to wait until it's released...

Dave Kaemmer also "talked" about it recently. The main point it's
supposed to address is online play.

   I don't know where (or when) you got *your* copy, John, but GPL
became available September 30 in the U.S.  :)
