[Trisquel-users] Re : Help with graphics card selection for desktop build

[lcerf]

What Linux best supports without any proprietary software (including  
firmware) is Intel graphical chipsets.  For years, those chipsets have  
allowed me to use both my laptop screen and an external monitor, connected  
through HDMI or VGA.  I guess it should be possible in a desktop computer  
too, as long as the motherboard has the proper outputs.  Also, for more  
control, avoid the vPro and the TXT technology in Intel processors.   
Searching for the model on http://ark.intel.com gives that information.
