Pere,
I got an ATI 3D Pro Turbo PC2TV 8MEG (Mach64/3D RageII+) card for
about $210. It is quite awesome, and lightning fast. It supports my
21 monitor quite nicely, and is well-supported under Windows as well.
The TV output doesn't work under Linux, but that's not what I got it
for anyway :-)
How do I get X11 to work on my IBM Aptiva (model 2144-M51) Mouse, Video
Card.

For information on the Matrox MIlleium II card see
http://matrox.alloy.net. That is the address for the developers of the
Xfree86 driver for it. The current debian Xfree86 package does not work
with it. You have to get the latest version of the driver. See the web
page for more

Gary,
Oleg is correct in that any cheap 2D card will do,
unfortunately, as far as I know, that's all Linux uses so you're
likely to be unhappy with the Linux/X video performance if you have a
cheap 2D card.
Ok. Thanks for the information. I'll probably be buying a
Millenium II.
Simon,
supposably working on getting Mesa to use the hardware 3D features.
It's a damn fast 2D card though.
I'll probably be buying the Millenium II. It looks like the best
buy around.

Hi!
What's the best Linux/Debian (Win95/NT too) compatible video card
available for $100-225?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Around the $100 end (or less) I'd say a generic ET6000 based card
with 4MB of MDRAM. However, for around $220-$230 you should be
able to find a Matrox Millenium II with 4MB of WRAM. It's supported
as a Millenium I right now, but it'll be even better when it's fully
supported as a Millenium 2.
I would have to go with the Matrox Millinium II; 64bit, 220 MHz, up to 16
WRAM, real time mpeg and rainbow running upgrades for video editing, and I
think the 4 meg card is about $200 or $250.. I'm not sure the XFree86
supports it, but I believe Accel-X does.

What's the Open Hardware certification? What other vendors

Any cheap (~$50) S3 card will do it.

I don't think 3D is supported right now, though people are
supposably working on getting Mesa to use the hardware 3D features.
It's a damn fast 2D card though.
