Another compatible video card

> I just bought an MSI Retail Box MSI nVidia Geforce 8400 GS 256MB DDR PCI Express x16. It works quite well with OpenSuse and new Nvidia setup on the home page. Does 3D and everything and it's not in the OpenSuse list nor in my PCChips motherboard listing.
> It was just $43.99. It's also a DirectX 10.0 Vista capable. Also works well on my Windows 2000 setup. Add it to the list if you like. From 3B Tech. (Saw the same card at Best Buy for $69.99)
