I have a 9200 (not the SE, though) and the only problem I have is related to the attached monitor not doing EDID. I use the radeon driver that comes with Fedora. I used to play Neverwinter Nights on that machine, but haven't done so lately. > The problems I had were related to dual-head functions. Your > experience may vary, but I'd definitely get go nvidia. I haven't tried that, so I don't know if that is supported. Still, I wouldn't have ditched the card. The 9200s don't need a separate fan, as many contemporary cards do. So it might be useful in a system where noise was a factor. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
