If you go with a Radeon and its drivers do you "taint the kernel" so to speak ? - as is the case with Nvidia. Brian Marr On Monday 26 August 2002 07:51, Mark Doucette wrote:
Hi Ben,
It just so happens I have a 7500 being sent out to me by a friend who doesn't use it anymore....so out of curiosity do you play any Q3,UT or such? If so do you have an opinion on there performance with that card?
Following this thread has made me very anxious to get that card in my grubby hands ;)
Cheers

Yes, I made sure all the current XFree86 pkgs were installed and up to date. I then just ran sax2 and it pretty much just setup everything for me. You have to make sure that the XFree86 GLX and DRI pkgs are there but this is pretty simple. It was the fastest graphics card install I've had in years and the preformance is really good.
