It took me about 30 minutes to find a $30 ati card that is well
supported. The 9200 looks promising. I was able to find a card based
on this series with a dvi port.
mga is also promising.
I've got a G450 on order already to see how that guy works. I've
read in places that the 2d performance with those cards
under the mga driver is fast.
Besides 2d performance though
I'd love to answer questions like why one has to wait 2 seconds
to load apps like konsole or kedit (on kde 3.5). kde is probably
a bad example, but its usually the same stuff with other apps
in the other windows managers. I may be preaching to the
choir, but for some reason after years of using X-apps/windows
I just have to know if there a faster way to do xorg that I
may have missed somewhere, some faq, some manpage,
some better (faster) app and window setup that I may
have missed somewhere....
