Hi Charles, I haven't dealt with CG on the Linux desktop in a while, but I do remember that the better cards were the Nvidia Quadro FX.
You might want to look at the 1100/1300/1400 or 3000/3400/3450 cards. Just be sure to check what form factor your motherboard accepts before purchasing (ie: AGP (1100,3000) or PCI-Express (1300/1400,3400/3450)). Comparisions: http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_11761.html Maya Supported cards under Linux: http://www.alias.com/glb/eng/support/maya/qualified_hardware/index.jsp We used to use FireGL cards, but they were less than impressive, in terms of support, drivers, and features. They showed promise back when FireGL 2/4 cards were the only ones you could use for content creation under Linux, but they seemed to have dropped the ball since then. Might be a lot better now, it's been 2 years since we gave up up on ATI... thanks, --Eli On 3/15/06, Charles Fischer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > For the modelers out there.
