SVGA occupies more memory, but provides acceleration for lots of chipsets. In an ISA video card from '93-'94 I use SVGA, for example. Strange your card does not appear in the programs. Read the model that appears in the chipset of the video card and try to get documentation for it. Perhaps it will function under other name because the same card with a little difference has two different names... > why is it not easier? Oh man, everyone here started like you. Think about some ideas: I prefer to go under a Linux problem than with a Windows problem, because the Windows problem usually has not solution and this is very frustrating. The computer is extremely stupid. An 'I will win' attitude will guide you to everyhere you want. If you add to the Debian hordes, in twenty years it will be installed with vitual reality. In fifty, with telepathy :) P.S. Under this science-fiction mess, I'm sure vi will still be used. Debian is the more authentic entity I've seen since Motörhead. hth, Ignasi -----------------------------------------------\ ____ From Barcelona... \ \____\_______ / / ___\_'_\ Still nationalizing the LAN! / \¬___/ ----------------------------------------------/ ___________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
