I would avoid NVidia since they have closed 3D drivers.
Last I checked ATI drivers were just as closed, and not nearly as up to date. For instance the new Radeons require a binary driver which doesn't exist for XFree86-4.3. So basically your completely out of luck. Kinda frustrating since they are quite popular/cheap, and ship on many dell's these days. If someone has a pointer to an opensource radeon 9700 3d driver please let me know and I'll put it to good use. -- Bill Broadley Mathematics UC Davis _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
