Graphics card compatibility with FreeBSD
 
Hi,
I have a nVdia GForce 2 MX 64MB AGP graphics card. Is it compatible with FreeBSD 5.0 ?

Also,does FreeBSD 5.0 provide a graphical installation?

Please reply quickly if you can....thanks!!

Compatability is more an issue with X than with FreeBSD, but yes, the card will work. NVIDIA have also ported their own drivers to FreeBSD, so you can get 3D acceleration working (Quake 3 works, with a little effort).

FreeBSD doesn't have a graphical install.

You can use xf86cfg or XF86config to configure yr X server!!

If you upgrade your FreeBSD to 4.8-RELEASE it has support for your card in the XF86Config.
