Hercules 3D Prophet FDX 8500LE
I can't find this card in SuSE's hardware DB. Radeon 8500 is listed as supported (acceleration included) on www.xfree86.org. Is the Hercules 3D Prophet FDX 8500LE a good choice for a Linux machine? It will be used by my kids for games. -- Kaare Rasmussen --Linux, spil,-- Tlf: 3816 2582 Kaki Data tshirts, merchandize Fax: 3816 2501 Howitzvej 75 Åben 14.00-18.00 Web: www.suse.dk 2000 Frederiksberg Lørdag 11.00-17.00 Email: kar@kakidata.dk

This card is basically an ATI Radeon 8500 with lower CPU and memory frequencies. I think that XFRee 4.2.0 supports it for 2d but there is no 3d acceleration. The Radeon 7500 got support both for 2d and 3d.

It don't use these cards but i use nvidia for long time now and i think nvidia chips offer a better support (for 3d) and seems an easier choice for Linux. Francis
