Exactly. Bigger models have two cards, but not this one. Nvidia don't care so much about Open source so it's not a way for me in any case (voting by money :-)) and I have laptop with Intel GT2+ because of it's performance which is comparable to Nvidia. It's just too much new piece of HW, but I know that nearly all systems are working on support or have it already. That's why I said that vga is last issue which I care about. LAN device or those bus devices are different case. On Solaris 11 express (151a) are exactly same issues. > > -- > -Alan Coopersmith- [email protected] > Oracle Solaris Platform Engineering: X Window System > > > _______________________________________________ > OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list > [email protected] > http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss > _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
