I've had zero trouble with NVIDIA cards. Might be best not to buy the

In that case the nv driver will probably suffice. I've used it with success

Well, I will not use this machine for game or something like that. I had
selected "nv" and as I said it worked but the resolution sucked.
Everything was too big and I could not change the resolution. I didn't
have such problem when I was using Fedora and it just choose the driver
automatically.

Now another question. I am using NVIDIA and last time I selected "NV" it
didn't work properly. Is there any way to force to autodetecttion mode?
Or, what option should I choose if I have NVIDIA graphic card?

I had a lot of problems with i810 video cards (intel graphics
extreme2's in particular). I ended up add the i810 framebuffer to the
kernel, setting "vga=791" in lilo.conf and using fbdev as the video
driver in XF86Config.
