Anything wrong with GeForce 2 MX?

acid_kewpie · 08-23-2001, 01:35 PM

Does anyone know of any existing problems with the Geforce 2 MX AGP card wrt X?

How about the TNT2?

Turns out my Xpert2000 is officially unsupported, and i really don't want to waste hours hacking my XF86Config to get it to work when i can just change it for another...

Any other cards for around £50 ($80?) that people would swear by? If you do and it's available at www.eclipse-computers.com please tell me!!

Thanks

nvidia has pretty good support for linux - the geforce 2 is supported -
http://www.xfree86.org/4.1.0/Status22.html#22

the driver document states specifically that the geforce2 MX is supported with hardware acceleration - but only in 4.1.0. you might also want to look up the new nvidia drivers on the nvidia site.

The NVIDIA driver also works with XFREE86 4.0.3 as that is what I have, also with a GEFORCE 2 MX.
