Heh - if you want something that's supported _very well_ by XFree86 then the Mill II isn't your best bet either - it works well enough to use but there are still wrinkles here and there and the support is by no means flawless yet. I use AcceleratedX on my Matrox and wouldn't use anything else. If you want something that's _very well_ supported by XFree86 then buy an S3 card. :-) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
