Hi,
A week ago I complained here about a poor quality of ES1000 graphical
chipset on our new compilation servers (also used as workstations).
So basically I need you people to recommend me a card to buy.
The requirements are:
1) PCI/PCI-E (the board has no AGP slots)
2) Able to run in 1280x1024 mode.
3) Supported by vanilla kernel and vanilla Xorg. (There are at least 5-6
different distros here).
4) Relatively cheap.
<rant>It's simply ridiculous. Any onboard adapter would be OK, but if
you buy a board without one, you're out of luck. What do I ask for?
1280x1024! Any intel chipset would do. Why is it has to be so difficult?
I don't need performance, I don't need gl, I don't even know what
"shader" is. I need it to run 1280x1024, period.</rant>
Ahem, stupid question. Any card is supposed to work with "vesa" driver,
right? So it kind of solves my problems, right?
