    So you'll be using nVidia cards then?

    P.S. What is "Marketting" exactly?

        Well,

        in the remote chance that you will use a matrox card, don't use your drivers cause they don't work to well with the new kernel. Use the one that tuxx_home did. He posted it somewhere on your forums

          Thanks for the heads-up Haig.. but I no longer have a Matrox video card.

          The thing is, I am so used to having the 3ple-Display desktop display that now, a lousy single 19" CRT doesn't cut it -heheh

              Actually, at work, I currently run 2 20" and 1 24" WS display. All nVidia driven.

                  Hello Saad,

                  So, you don't work for Matrox anymore?


                  Anyways, it's nice to see you here.

                      I think there is actually a larger percentage of non Matroxians here now-a-days.

                        I think by a large degree if you consider the primary machine only.

                          That's true probably a lot of us have our reliable Matrox cards in the old secondary computers. Unfortunately for me my mobo with the old AGP voltage for the G200 I have is dead.
