dear shankar,
thanx for ur reply.
I had also the idea that Creative Graphics Blaster Exxtreme(GB6612) which is
built on Permedia chipset is the best for Linux and also for OpenGL support
as i had tried that once.
But the thing is that i am failing to find that card around Calcutta.
Can u refer me to some vendor?
thankx,
Surajit
