Of course, decent hardware companies have the drivers for their chipsets

Well I got top working.
In Suse 9.1 the package is called procps and for some reason it was not
installed by default on the PII/300 with 256Mb ram.

My problem though, was that the utility I wanted was top which is in the
package procps but used to be in the package ps.
You would not believe how many way-off results I get when searching Google
with top in the search.

I'm using a Matrox G400/G450 at work. Works well, if you don't need 3d

Most of the newer video cards support duel head. I had a cheap nVidia
FX5600 with a dvi and a vga connector on the back. with a dvi-vga
connector you can get 2 vga screens hooked up. The binary nVidia
drivers have good duel head support.
