     in itself, FreeBSD doesn't support graphics boards - but X-Windows 
     does
     
     Check which borads are supported by the latest release fo xfree86 at 
     www.xfree86.org

Objet : wierd video card (maybe a bit new...)

hello people, 
     
I went to read some stuff on the www site, and on the ftp site... 
and I could not find info about 2.2.6-RELEASE supporting a wierd 
video card named... Diamond Stealth II (S220), 4MB SGRAM... 
chipset verite 2100  or something... 
     
a friend is going to try to install X on  his machine, and he is 
kinda worried about the system not supporting his device...
     
is there a driver for that thing? or do you know if it is kinda 
backwards compatible with a model in the driver list and which 
one is it... ? before he brings his machine and we start to 
try the Diamond card driver family for a close match...
     
thanks
     
P.D. I copied the ftp site at ftp.freebsd.org for the 2.2.6-RELEASE
     thingie... and the only thing I left out were.. the packages
     and the xperimnt directories... I noticed an update directory... 
     is there where any erratas and fixes for 2.2.6 will be uploaded?
     
     
        anyone on the side of Baja or sonora is welcome to 
    install the 2.2.6-RELEASE from 148.231.177.8 with an anonymous 
    login, anyone who is not there... will probably take longer than 
    1 hour to download 1 MB of info during normal weekdays... :(
