Good point.... I completely forgot about that. I couldn't afford a good
video card when these came out! I don't actually know if XF86 supports
external 3d accelerators. I couldn't find anything in the Hardware
compatability list. However, it is possable that if it is a newer
distribution, it may be auto-detected during the boot-time hardware
check (like RH6.1's kojack). The hardware detection has come a long way
in the last year or so.
