 What's a good video card for RH 7.2?  Can't get my ati Rage Fury Pro to
 work.

TEG Radeon 7500 if you're willing to upgrade
TEG XFree to 4.2.

How supported is this card (the 7500)? Is the support good enough to run Tux
racer and Chromium(sp?)? I've heard lots of good things about these but I'm
reluctant to go get a new card without knowing how the OpenGL support is.
Any info would be appreciated.

Have fun,

I have this card at home and (running not-quite-final XFree-4.2)
accelerated 3D works fine.  I've run both of these games (and the various
OpenGL-based screensaver modules) , and I've seen no problems -- I can only
assume 4.2 gold would be the same (if not better)...

P.S. Actually, I take back that no problems statement; I do notice some
incorrectly drawn stuff when I logout from GNOME, and the screen darkens
around the logout confirmation window, but that is literally the only thing
I've seen that doesn't display properly...
