Title: RE: [expert] Best Video cards for Linux?
Sorry about answering this late (this is my work account). when I say runs well I mean it's fast in 3D and 2D and quite stable. I have Quake3 for Linux, Tux Racer, and a couple of other 3D games for linux and all of them run impressively. For me

Hi,
When you say that it 'runs well' does it mean smooth? I mean, enough
frames
per second?
I guess you need to install the NVidia drivers, don't you?
I ask this becuase I have the same Nvidia chip and I may try to
install

Just to let you guys know - installing the nvidia drivers from an rpm isn't totally necessary.

Agreed, but what is your point? Installing from the rpms is easy (on rpm
based systems) and the nvidia drivers provide much better 3D performance
than the nv driver. Sure, you can use tar balls, but what is the
advantage? The rpm install takes care of backing up the old mesa libs so
that the
you'll be very happy too.

Thanks for explaining to me why there has been all of the traffic about
nvidia drivers on both this list and the newbie list. Gotta check out
some of the local stores...
Well i dont now if i have good understand, butt someone has tell You to
Title: RE: [expert] Best Video cards for Linux?
I totally understand what you're saying here, and agree to a degree. What many of us may need to realize is that nVidia may have code in their drivers that are under an NDA from another party. If memory serves me, they're using code from S3
Many thanks, is there a place I can order
one from?
