Also try the servers at SuSE's site. Don't know for sure if the'll handle your board but AcceleratedX does. I've got it running on a Millenium G200-SD 8 meg. and before that a MGA PCI-2 2meg. Works great at 1600x1200 24bpp. Regards, Mike +--------------------------------------------------+ | Mike Nachlinger (408) 446-9914 [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Apres Ski Club 1-888-APRESGO www.apres.org | +--------------------------------------------------+
