It is unlikely that most hardware vendors would offer support for FreeBSD, as it's typically the other way around -- FreeBSD offers support for their products. I'll bet it's the same with the Matrox Meteor. Matrox will say that they don't support it, but I'll bet that FreeBSD and/or XFree86 (whichever applieth) does. What Matrox is saying is, "If our card works in FreeBSD, that's great, but don't call us about your problems if it does not." In short, you don't need Matrox's support. You only need the card and the documentation you can find on the net. Kenneth J.
