OT: Video cards? Creating Athlon Debian box..
I'm putting together my first machine (upgrading from a 486, so it should be
interesting :) and have trouble deciding on a video card. I thought 3dfx
was supposed to be a good choice (looking at the 3000), as was Matrox (the
G400). But older posts on the archives seem to indicate trouble with both
(or at least _references_ to trouble).
NVidia (sp?) was mentioned as a possibility, but I didn't know it was
supported well.
I hope people don't mind the poll. I honestly am at a bit of a loss with all
the new stuff I'm discovering out there, and want to make a good match with
Debian.
Thanks for any input!

ps. My work will involve molecular modeling imagery, with VRML quite likely a
part of that. Certainly 2D, but I don't know about 3D. Any games are likely
under Winblows for my kids (until I find out about Descent under Linux.. ;-)
