[PD] pd on gericom masterpiece 2440

[delire]

pix and i got X up on this box but from memory hardware accelleration was hard for some reason [although we both use a range of hw accellerated cards on other machines under linux]. our inability to install may have had something to do with the fact we were in a remote croatian village at the time, with one dialup modem feeding the entire town.

i use a radeon 7500 on my dell i8k with the < http://dri.sf.net > with amazing performance [often faster than win32 and the same card]. this is your best bet with the dri.

ps don't buy the gericom if it rattles, the one we worked with did.

cheers,

julian
