open gl
I recently discovered that my videocard supports open gl(it's a Sapphire Radeon X1950XTX, 512 MB, GDDR4, PCI Express x16).
so my question is how do i enable open gl in maya?

At this point, if you have a look at the Output Window, you should see a line that starts with Hardware Renderer.
FYI, mine says:
Hardware Renderer : vendor(ATI Technologies Inc.), renderer(RADEON 9550 x86/SSE2), version(2.0.5147 WinXP Release)
fragment API(ATI Fragment Program)
vertex API(Cg vertex programs)
Video card does not support NonPowerOfTwo textures.
And yeah, I know mine's crud.
S.
EDIT: I'd intended to include this mel script I use for selecting the render type - much quicker than fighting your way through the dialog boxes.
Code:
window -title "Render Type"; columnLayout -adjustableColumn true; button -label "HW Render" -command "setCurrentRenderer mayaHardware;"; button -label "SW Render" -command "setCurrentRenderer mayaSoftware;"; button -label "MR Render" -command "setCurrentRenderer mentalRay;"; showWindow;
