I personally would prefer options 1) and 2) together, if possible. But that's just my personal opinion - a suggestion. BTW (a bit OT): I finally got XFree to fully recognize and boot the afb board inside one SunBlade 1000 using the former Linux-only sunffb driver :) So I can support Creator, Creator3D and Elite 3D cards in coming releases of marTux. I also have another surprise-feature. Be patient. -- Regards, Martin Bochnig.org
