Radeon 9200 PCI (was:RE: Digital PWS433au + Matrox G450 PCI)

[Hoover, Tony]

 Jay, ( and others )
Lately you've suggested a Radeon 9100 a couple of times.  I haven't found
any PCI 9100's on recent searches, but I have found a few Radeon 9200 PCI's
(w/ 128M DDR).  Will the 9200 work with the X servers in RH7.2 and AlphaCore
0.9?  ( Including 3D? )  I think I remember an issue some people ran into
with RH7.2 and Radeon 9600's, and thought I'd check.

Thanx

What are you trying to accomplish by replacing the Matrox Millennium I?

If you are thinking to run 3D applications, you'd be nmuch better off
getting an ATI Radeon of some flavor, preferably 7500 or 9100, though
the PCI versions are definitely harder to find.

If you're thinking that the G450 will be much faster than the Mill I,
you're probably right, but the difference won't be large, IMHO.
