Re: X11 AGP Card
Hi Brian, Thank for the information. Does the AGP card improve the graphics significantly and noticeable? Thanks! Brian Weiss wrote: On Sun, 7 Jun 1998, Timothy C.

Thanks! -- Timothy C. Phan Intelligence Quest Research, INC. There are many AGP cards currently supported by XFree86. There are also a few more available through special servers such as S.u.S.E's Elsa_GLoria server for cards like mine (Diamond Permedia 2). You should check out the supported video cards list in the XFree86 3.3.2 documentation and also S.u.S.E's supported video cards list. You can find these lists at http://www.xfree86.org and http://www.suse.com. Just follow the links. There are no special configurations needed for AGP cards either. With the right server they should run fine. .- Brian Weiss ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.got.net/~brian -- Timothy C.

Re: X11 AGP Card
Hi, Thank for the information. Does the AGP card improve the graphics significantly and noticeable? Thanks! AGP is meant to significantly improve 3D performance, not 2D. There may be improvement in 2D performance but I don't think that it would be significant. I've got a Millenium II AGP. It's fast but I don't think that it being an AGP card helps all that much with its 2D stuff. I have no idea how much of an improvement there is for the 3D stuff since I don't have any 3D Linux applications that use 3D acceleration, unless Mesa takes advantage of the Millenium II's 3D abilities. This seems unlikely since my GL screen savers seem like they should run faster. -Ossama -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, I'd like to know if X11 on Linux support the AGP card? I'd like to in particalur which card makers are supported and if there is any special configuration/setup I need to do.

Hi, I'd like to know if X11 on Linux support the AGP card? I'd like to in particalur which card makers are supported and if there is any special configuration/setup I need to do. Thanks! Latest Xfree86 supports at least #9 Revolution 3D and Matrox Millenium II AGP cards, may be a few others too.
