I'm looking for a graphics card that will work out of the box with mandrake 9.1. In otherwords, I don't want to download some binary driver, or rebuild X, or do some weird kernel hack....
Actually, this is a cool question. It would be nice to have a list of cards that work - accelerated - out of the box, with 9.2. Right?
For example, my NVidia Gefore2 works perfectly with the binary driver, but requires constant updates, rebuilds, and hacks.
On the other hand, my SiS 630 is a crappy video card, but works flawlessly and effortlessly with XV and DRI.
If we had a list of 'low-maintenance' video cards, it would be a real help to people building Mandrake systems.
