[ale] Recommended PCI video card

[Prasanna Subash]

My voodoo3 3000 pci works great with Linux. I downloaded the drivers @
www.3dfxgamers.com.
Give it a shot.

	I have a 3dfx Voodoo3 2000 PCI that works well in several operating
systems(RH 6.0, Beos, NT, 98).  You have to use the drivers from 3dfx
though.  You may want to look at some of the new Riva cards too.  I have a
Riva TNT that works well in all of the above operating systems also.  I
would check out http://www.xfree86.org/cardlist.html for cards supported in
the current release of xfree86 if you want to be sure of support......

I'm badly wanting to upgrade my old PCI S3 video card to something much
newer but also affordable.  I'd like to stay less that $120 if possible and
have XF86 support.

Can a few of you throw out some rocommendations?

A couple of cards I'm looking at possibly is a Matrox G200 PCI 128bit 8Mb
card, or a 3Dfx Voodoo3 PCI.


Thanks,
