I have a number of multi-head/multi-seat PCs running in the office. We mostly have Radeon RV-100 cards, we have a couple with mixed nVidia and Radeon. So far the most stable is the PC with two nVidia-based PCI cards plus the built-in Savage chipset. The thing is, it is quite hard to find PCI video cards. Most of the time I see PCI-Express ones. But most motherboard only have one of those long PCI-E slots. Motherboards with more of this type of PCI-E slot are expensive. --- mike t. _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
