I have a temporary fix for the problem, as I've found a slightly older version of sis_drv.so that seems to work OK on etch. I will eventually upgrade as my reading suggests that this chipset 'steals' memory and tends to slow things down a bit. I guess it'll be a toss-up between the Radeon & Nvidia. Unfortunately you never seem to get a clear view of the cards in the advertising so it's hard to tell which are lo-profile. -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-user
