I'm pretty sure your Viper 770 Ultra is using the TNT2 chipset, so the TNT Xserver is supposed to support that. >>>> Also, what type of mpeg, quicktime, or Flash support does Freebsd have? <<<< Quicktime is unsupported entirely. Nobody's releasing the Sorrenson codecs to anybody, without licensing fees, so there's no Quicktime players. MPEG can be played on a few different players, most notably MTV (not free) and xanim. I can't help with Flash, though I'd assume it's available with the latest release of Netscape (4.7). You might check out www.macromedia.com and find out if Flash is available for FreeBSD. -- dave wiard (dave@srn.com) The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long.
