Hi, Sorry, its not Debian specific but I am a Debian user :-). I have found that Matrox Millenium G200 is supported by latest XFree86 but I am not sure what version -- AGP or PCI? Or maybe both? Any experience? Thanks! -- Tad

The PCI version ought to work... I would venture to guess the AGP version might work too. If you already have the card, why not give it a try? Get the latest XFree86 3.3.3.1 debs for Slink using the following line in /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://ftp.netgod.net/debian x/ On Fri, 28 May

Hi ! I have a G200 AGP that works fine with XFree 3.3.3, not as fast as with AccelX but still fine. It's not supported in XFree 3.3.2, so you have to use Potato or upgrade the XFree in slink as Alec wrote. Alec Smith wrote: The PCI version ought to work... I would venture to guess the AGP
