I agree. I am running stock Debian. No proprietary drivers at all. That rules out the Nvidia graphics cards. Instead I am using an ATI FireGL X1. No problems. I'm running 1920x1200. My previous graphics card was a Rage128. Worked fine except that it is only AGPx2 and so is not compatible with my new mother. -- Allen Brown work: Agilent Technologies non-work: http://www.peak.org/~abrown/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Anyone can make something work. It takes an engineer to make it *barely* work. _______________________________________________ EUGLUG mailing list [email protected] http://www.euglug.org/mailman/listinfo/euglug
