No. At least the following are supported natively, without binary only vendor drivers : - Matrox G200 and G400 (probably also higher) - All 3dfx cards (voodoo) - Most ATI cards (Some of the newer ones might not be supported yet) Nvidia is more the exception than the rule for this. The xfree86 documentation claims that the permedia 2 is fully supported. Frank > > cheers, > Wim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
