So I'd like to know about success/failure stories WRT the 550 card and 8.1?
The Matrox is cheaper, but if you'll hope / plan / expect to play games, then there are other options, such as the Creative card (although you do have to download and install the nVidia drivers
I have no problem with dl/install of nVidia drivers. Question is, will this card handle two CRT monitors?
- haven't read your earliar thread, so don't know what problems you've experienced).
It's an X thing. It mainly shows up when I use Mutt in Konsole, where the 'threading' doesn't show 'right'. It looks awful, and it's sort of annoying. I made a screenshot: http://bund.dk/~jon/konsole.png It *did* work with 8.0, but I'm fed up with trying to work out what exactly has changed.
I do have a 550 sat waiting to go into this PC, but haven't tried it yet, sorry.
Don't be :)
If something isn't broke, I'm wary of messing with it!
A wise attitude ;) cheers, Jon Clausen
