I use one in my Caldera system and it works great for me as far as video is concerned (I don't have any of the TV features working, though). I am pretty sure, however, that Alex's All-in-Wonder uses a different chip than the older version we have. ****************************************** Powered by Caldera OpenLinux eDesktop 2.4 & KMail 1.0.28 Bryan S.

On SuSE 7 X4 I have the AGP All In Wonder Card (Board name Rage128LAGP2x) working very well using the r128 driver. It also worked fine for me under X3.3 using (I think) the SVGA server, not the mach64 driver. Both Sax and Sax2 had no problem configuring X and finding the right server/driver. I think there are different chipsets for the All in Wonder. You may have one that is not standard? Brett

For the ATI All-in-Wonder 128 AGP you need the SVGA server which has support for the rage129 chipset of this card. I have one with 16Mb and it works flawlessly for X display and for video/tv watching under Linux.
