I was in the same position a short while ago. The problem is... it's not just about "Nvidia or AMD" -- the exact chipset and your use case matter. I ended up with (on-chip) Intel (it's a desktop), on the "theory" that there are some X developers working on Intel's money and writing free X drivers. Of course, if you are aiming at high-end gaming or parallel computation on your graphics card, that would not be an option, since the external graphic cards have way more oomph than those on-chip thingies. For day-to-day stuff (browser, video editing, Gimp) it seems perfectly adequate. - -- t -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlV33ggACgkQBcgs9XrR2kZg+QCfRHk/hUaAetP/m7D8CbWw7/+e M14An0D/di40bGuU12k43fThpPT6QqOG =V28u -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
