moin moin, As I posted last week, ATI's new cards are releasing with X drivers.
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amd_evolution&num=1 This won't satisfy some of us as they're binary blobs, but the Free Software drivers can be used as well. http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amd_rv770_oss&num=1 Now they're available. http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Description=HD+4850&cm_sp=HomepageSL-_-AMD4000-_-http%3a%2f%2fpromotions.newegg.com%2famd%2f4000%2f270x120.gif Hmm, why does it think that page is a gif? Anyway, I'm buying a couple of SDHC cards, so figured I'd pick up a new video card as well. I no longer know squat about video cards, so I don't know how to rate the available cards. I don't game, but I do want to have good compiz and video playback. I have a dual-head setup with 22" wide monitors as well. I would like something that will run cool at low power. That probably means I should completely ignore this line :). Video out would be cool. HD out with Free Software support would be awesome. product: M2N4-SLI vendor: ASUSTeK Computer INC. It's got a bunch of pci slots, but I don't see anything about agp or pciexpress in lshw. ciao, der.hans -- # http://www.LuftHans.com/ https://LOPSA.org/ # "Common sense is nothing more than a deposit of prejudices laid down # by the mind before you reach eighteen." -- Albert Einstein --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
