The list is fine you have to remember that people who don't know anything
about multimedia will be using the card and we do need to warn people
that for optimal performance they need a PCI card such as an S3 968 VRAM
which XFree86 provides DGA support. The same goes for the sound cards and
other things such as disks which are going to be more important later
on once fxtv supports video capture streams.

	Tnks!
