[opensuse] HCL is not up to date - nVidia 8400GS ?
Hi all, we need to replace some Graphic cards. We use nVidia mostly, and looked at the OpenSUSE HCL. We want to know if the Gainward nVidia 8400GS has been testet by someone. The 8300GS is in the HCL, is supported, but as new card is not available to us any more. :-) Al -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I have the 512MB XFX version[0] rather than the Gainward version (256MB?), and it works just fine at 1680x1050 under 10.3, as long as you have the nVidia drivers.
