Hi folks,
i want to buy a computer witch runs linux or bsd. I already made up my mind as
far as mainboard (486 DX 2-66 VLB) and the other stuff is concerned. Since
MS-Windows and X-Windows should run, i decided to buy a fast graphics-card -
the ATI Ultra Pro. I know that X can be run on the ATI Ultra Pro with an 8514-
driver.
Question:
Does X support the Vesa-Local-Bus version of the ATI Ultra Pro card, too ?
Please, help me and post your answer in this group or email me.
