Linux BSD and PCIE videocards


Hi !
Does anybody use a linux or a BSD flavour as desktop with a PCIE card ?
If so please tell me what X server and what videocard. It is the videocard accelerated ?
Do you use any specific drivers for it ?
Thanks !

I'm not lucky enough to have a PCIe but I think that this may help:

Darwin is the kernel of Mac OS X and it's Open Source. Mac OS X support PCIe and Darwin should also support it. Since Darwin is *BSD based the drivers for PCIe (I have no idea what software is needed for using PCIe) should be easily ported to other *nix OSs. You can searh in their wikis or faqs, I think the URL is http://opendarwin.org
