Does anyone know whether Linux (or, more properly, X) has drivers to
drive DVI (Digital Video Interface) cards?

We need to hook up a number of LCD monitors, one at a time, to a PC
running Mdk 7.2 (could upgrade to 8.0) via a DVI adaptor for some
perceptual experiments in the lab.  The problem is that I'm not sure
about drivers for the DVI card that drives the LCD unit under test.

My colleague, who is doing the experiments, has a Matrox G400 video
card in his (M$) PC.  It has a daughter card that has a DVI port on it
which comes out the back at an adjacent card location.  Perhaps it is
only necessary to drive the Matrox directly as a video card and _it_
(the Matrox) does the conversion to PCI.  I don't know.

If anyone uses DVI or knows the situation in general, I'd appreciate
it if you'd pipe up.  Thanks.
