Greetings-

Does NetBSD/FreeBSD support local bus video? Also on the subject of
video, Amancio Hasty has posted he really likes the Actix Ultra
(they have S3928 chipset). Is this the same as ATI? If so will
the ATI local bus cards work and are they advisable? I guess I may
as well ask, why would local bus be an advantage?

Enquiring minds would like to know, or at least I would. thanks.

Jason Thomasser
