Okay, I've decided to get a new video card and have narrowed it down to a ATI Radeon of some sort. The question is, which one?
An excellent choice, assuming you have an Intel-chipset motherboard! I'll not get into compatibility issues, as many of them have indeed disappeared with the maturing of DRI. If I were to ask this question, I'd first hit the DRI mail archives at: http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=387 Somebody may have already done the research for you. I'm sure that the Radeon 8500 will work in 2D, but 3D may be an entirely different issue. The older DDR model is definitely a safer bet, but the 8500 may work beautifully. ===== -- -=|JP|=- Hit me! - http://www.xanga.com/cowboydren/ Jon Pennington | Debian 2.3 -o) cowboydren @ yahoo . com | Auto Enthusiast /\\ Kansas City, MO, USA | ICQ UIN 69 67 29 31 _\_V __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
