Actually, I've already had all kinds of problems with the Stealth in Linux as a second card, I'd just forgot about it. It seems to perform a little better with the Nvidia card, but still needs fixing. With the Trident, I'm finding I can't even get a video BIOS screen when it boots up, and thi

If this Diamond card is a "PC" card (a card with PC VGA BIOS and not "mac" OpenFirmware ROM), then you cannot use this in your Mac. Your firmware will not know how to enable the card so no matter what XFree86 does, it will fail to initialize the card because it was never POST(ed). The Mac does
