Re: Graphics cards with Free drivers
the reverse engineered nvidia driver is working now,
cant recall the name of it.
is there any reason you cant use with nvidia blob? it works well in
linux and in debian
just go
apt-get install module-assistant
m-a prepare nvidia
m-a a-i nvidia
apt-get install nvidia-settings nvidia-glx
viola! just need to configure X somewhat.
the basic 'nv' driver will work for most nvidia cards, but its largely
just rudimentry 2d support.
there is nvidia drivers for 32bit and 64bit, no need to cut your teeth
on reverse engineered drivers unless you have some compelling reason to
buy an amd64 and run an older card.

Does anyone know of a graphics card which is definitely supported by Free
drivers?
