Just one additional question regarding video cards. I've had a chat with some of the hardware guys at my job and they've reccomended the ATI X800XL or the ATI X800Pro. Does this play nice with Linux? Also, what about PCI-Express? I understand that it's included in 2.6.11, but how stable is that? I want a good video card so I can continue to play good 3d games on my windows partition. -- the more law and order are made prominent, the more thieves and robbers there will be. - lao-tsu -- [email protected] mailing list
