[linux-help] Re: Recommendation for a video card.

[Clint Brubakken <cabrubak@xxxxxxx>]

I know, but of the 3 responses I received one, 2 were questioning if I
really meant what I said in my question.

I've noticed that lately is becoming more common, when people ask
questions. 

I could understand if someone was clueless and didn't give enough
information. 

Another example recently was when someone had problem with installing an
rpm, one suggestion was to use debian instead.

Well, you didn't say why, PCI video cards are getting rare and AGP is 
much more common, but ISA video cards are much more rare.  I have a PCI 
16mb video card in use right now, but when it becomes available I could 
let you know, that is if you haven't already found another PCI video 
card.  All my other PCI video cards are 4mb or less.
