Thanks for the info. Perhaps a shopping trip is in order. ;)

Have fun,

Radeon 64 MB DDR for RHL 7.2, Radeon 7500 if you're willing to upgrade
XFree to 4.2.

I have a Rage Fury 128 running fine.  What problems are you having?

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.

I get a blank screen.  It appears that it is loading properly from the
hard drive activity, butI can't see anything until I
Control-Alt-Backspace.  That now returns me to the console log-in.
Thanks,

RE: video card for RH 7.2

2002-03-08 Thread Carter, Shaun G

go into XF86Config-4 and make sure the device is set to use the r128
chipset.  Did the install detect the card?  Normally the r128 works with the
SVGA package that comes with XFree86.  I'm guessing you see the BIOS boot
sequence til linux boots, then when it switches to runlevel 5 it blanks out?
try booting in runlevel 3 and running startx, see what that tells you.

Dunno about yours, but I've got an (older) ATI Xpert 98 card which 
works great with the mach64 driver.

I've also run another 7.2 installation with an Aopen Nvidia GeForce2
card (Aopen MX200, 64 meg RAM) using the Nvidia drivers (not the 
Xfree nvidia drivers) and it worked great for the limited amount of
time I tested it.

 Have an Athlon 1.4 processor.
