Marso" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: pci video card suggestions? Message-ID: <19990109083651.A13622@marso.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.1i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm looking for a trouble-free PCI video card for about $100. I have a Trident Providea 9685 4MB card, which just won't work higher than -bpp 8 with XFree86. The XFree86 docs speak at length about what cards are compatible, etc., but nowhere are, e.g., three very well regarded cards recommended. P.S. I don't play Quake. I'd like enough onboard memory to be able to run at 1024x768 at 16 or 32 bpp, with good responsiveness. Relatively modest goals. Thank you for any ideas. Best regards -- Larry S.
