: I am looking for a new video card to run X, os/2 and dos/windoze. 

I am only interested in the first two criteria, and have learned that
Number Nine's GXE line of cards are stable under both.  I'm opting for
GXEL16 which has driver support under Xfree at 1600x1200x8@72Hz.  While
it runs under OS/2 at 1280x1024x8@72, I have yet to hear if the 4.15
driver offers better.
