Thanks to _everyone_ for your suggestions. The first one was NVIDIA, and mentioned that there is support for their cards. While I was out picking up a copy of Pan's Labyrinth at Circuit City today, I found an e-GeForce 7300 GS there, at a trivial price. Figuring that if it didn't work for me here, I'd stick it in a Windows machine sometime, I went ahead and bought it. It turns out the installation was pretty painless. (Well, there was that thing about booting to console mode, but I used sax2 to reconfigure the graphics, and all was well after that.) It sure made a difference! Just scrolling through a message in Thunderbird, or a web page in Firefox was painful before. Now it works great, and the Motocross game even recognizes it as a 3D graphics card. Again, thanks for all the suggestions. Luckily for me, the first suggestion turned out to work well. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGT+ZBdqy7mNl00FsRAhA5AJ9MGfaEa0zD93rmzpG9REFTUlI2iQCgk26P Yfn6+Ju2/88s/Znelfv4QKc= =eGO2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
