Not quite. Textures are sortof stopped by TTM (as it's little point
re-inventing the wheel) but other stuff like glxgears (and other trivial
opengl stuff) should be working[1]. People are working on foundation
stuff behind the scenes, so to speak.

Put it this way: in a few months time I'm expecting to be playing Q3 on
nouveau.
