Re: [expert] Good vidoe card to use
No problem with the All in Wonder Pro with 7.0 (Air) with corresponding X. Don't know about the 128. The only thing I can't get to work yet, is something that the programmers are working on as we speak...TV Out, and DVD. The work on this is coming along nicely, however it has not progressed along well enough for me to try it yet. The drivers work great in X and in console. The Mesa and XATITV works great ... get the latest version update after installation. Minor bugs in version that ships with 7.0, corrected for the most part in upgrade. I love it!

Well, I put a brand new Vodoo3 2000 in my homebuilt Duron system. It installed without a hitch and is working flawlessly. I think there are some tuning tricks I can do when I get time, for accelerated 3d rendering. They are already documented in the cooker archives--(author is Guillaume Cottenceau). As for wheel mouse support, you do not need all of 7.1 for that. Again, the cooker archives have many threads about it when it was being added, and how to load/use it etc. Civileme

Re: [expert] Good vidoe card to use
I've also found the Matrox G200 to work pretty decently under both x3.6 and 4. I bought some cheap little 4meg deal, and it's doing fine apart from the fact that the card can't support anything higher than 1024x768 at 32bit color ;) Sam - Original Message - From: "Gil Baron W0MN" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "AA/MandrakeExpert" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 17, 2000 6:10 AM Subject: [expert] Good vidoe card to use > Since my Diamond Viper II on one system and Maxi Gamer Voodoo Banshee on > the other do not work in version 7.1 and X 3.6 or 4, can anyone recommend a > GOOD FAST card that works in both Linux 7.1 and windows 2000. > I am not sure I am ready to buy a new card but I don't want to make another > error. > Thanks, and if you have actually used the card and it works in 7.1 and if > possible with X 4 that would be the best. > > > -- > Gil Baron W0MN http://members.home.net/gbaron/ > 44:04:55.9 N 92:30:46.206 W 1050' NAD27 > "Hierro candente, batir de repente"

I have a Diamond Viper 550. It is supported fine with the latest 3.3.6 version of X. I retrospect I would chose one of the Matrox G series for dual head and game support.

Re: [expert] Good vidoe card to use
Gil, I have experienced the same thing with the Viper II under 7.0. No support for the card. I've had to go back to a lowly ATI LT Pro to get x-windows up and running with it.

I don't know about Diamond Viper II but one thing I do know is that there is _no problem whatsoever_ with Voodoo Banshee and Mandrake 7.1 (and even previous Mandrake releases). I have one since about 1 year and a half and it has been supported in Xfree since 3.3.5 (even using 3D with the proper Mesa package). I repeat, _no problem whatsoever_ (well, in Linux, I wouldn't know about Windows 2000 :-) If you have a problem with this card it _must_ be something specific to your system (e.g. I/O port or interrupt conflict ... but if that, it can usually be overcome using BIOS setup). -- Jean-Louis Debert[EMAIL PROTECTED] 74 Annemasse France old Linux fan
