I'm looking for a video-card. The more recent mobo's (like the i815) have them builtin. My 750MHz machine uses the SRAM for its v-RAM. My old Kayaks came with Matrox Millennium 8MB video card that give me Plenty of resolution under xorg. I just did a web search and find an "AGP" card for seriously cheap with 256MB of memory. It's an "eVGA e-GeForce FX5500" Whatever! I'm no gamer (but just-might-wanna play some auto racing games). All I care about is a) that the card fits by KVM plug with a three-row pinout, and of course, b), that FBSD has a driver for this card. ....All of my computers have this 3-row male pin, so need a 3-row female jack/socket. Sorry to be so in the dark ages, but just about all of my computer work-work involved the test or porting world. Wow, 256M .... and I've got 8M. Dunno whether to laugh or cry. thanks, guys, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public Service Unix
