Dear list,

I had a nvidia and a ATI card. Since I don't play 3d games I could
live without 3d effects. I want to buy a graphic card which is
completely supported by linux (ergo open source).


Just for a quick test, I went and checked the online shop of one of the bigger german hardware
resellers, and they have nvidia, ati, and matrox. nothing else.

At another online shop its the same: matrox, nvidia, ati.
So, if you dont want either of the big two 3d cards, get a matrox. YMMV.

bye,
MH
