One with FreeBSD, one with Solaris, and one with Win2K. The FreeBSD and Solaris machines currently display back to the Win2k box thanks to Reflection X. Both the BSD and Win2k box have 16MB Riva TNT video cards in them. Since the display is over the network, does it even matter what card I have in the FreeBSD machine now? Which one does the rendering? If not, I'll configure it for a GeForce and update the win2k macine to that card. If it does matter, then I'll probably hold off for a bit. For that matter, I've got a 4mb Turbo XGX card I could toss in the Sparc to improve the video quality if necessary. I'm just asking for some advice/info before juggling all my hardware around. As a rule of thumb, I don't like shutting these down unless I need to. Improving the video quality would be a plus.
