I don't have one of these but according to Diamonds web site the card uses the TNT2 chipset. I don't know which version of X you are running but there is official support in the SVGA server from 3.3.4, which is not at netgod's site. There is a SVGA server released by Nvidia(that was incorporated into 3.3.4) that you can get from Nvidia's web site(Search the debian-user list archives for the location). You should just be able to stick the binary in /usr/local/bin and then edit /etc/X11/Xserver. You might also be able to do this with the SVGA server from 3.3.4 with everything else a 3.3.3.1 system, I am not sure. -- Brian --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mechanical Engineering [EMAIL PROTECTED] Purdue University http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~servis ---------------------------------------------------------------------
