I'm putting together my first machine (upgrading from a 486, so it should be interesting :) and have trouble deciding on a video card. I thought 3dfx was supposed to be a good choice (looking at the 3000), as was Matrox (the G400). But older posts on the archives seem to indicate trouble with both (or at least _references_ to trouble).
NVidia (sp?) was mentioned as a possibility, but I didn't know it was supported well. I hope people don't mind the poll. I honestly am at a bit of a loss with all the new stuff I'm discovering out there, and want to make a good match with Debian. Thanks for any input! Kenward Vaughan ps. My work will involve molecular modeling imagery, with VRML quite likely a part of that. Certainly 2D, but I don't know about 3D. Any games are likely under Winblows for my kids (until I find out about Descent under Linux.. ;-)
