Not me, I don't have any rx2600s (non-'workstation' zx6000 equivalent) anymore. I did get non-accelerated output out of a Radeon HD5450 in an rx2620 under several operating systems. I also have a few AGP cards, including a FireGL X1-256 and a Radeon HD4670, but the latter I haven't tested much (also be- cause the mixed 'PCI-X and AGP' riser/card cage isn't --- or not 'officially' --- supported in/by the rx2620, let alone with the IA-32/x86 instructions lacking "Montecito" 9000 series processors). I haven't bothered much with Linux as of late. I should try some more, soon, now that I have some time. > If so, what machine?

Before that, though, I'll mostly continue to use OpenVMS and HP-UX (to a far lesser degree). - MG -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-ia64-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
