[XFree86] Purchase Advice Needed: Robust DVI support?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi :)

I currently have 2 DVI LCD's, and run Xinerama on them using two cards,
a Matrox G450 PCI over DVI, and a NVidia GeForce2-GTS AGP over VGA. 
After much effort, I can't get the GF2's DVI working in this combination
(under 4.3, even with "FlatPanel" "true" and "CrtcNumber" "1", etc).

Thus, I am looking to replace the GF2 or both cards, becuase I need DVI
support for the second screen.

Requirements:
1) working DVI connector(s)
2) Free/Open Source XFree86 drivers (most robust support wanted)
3) 2D workstation use only, no 3D or gaming
4) 1600x1200 support is a big bonus

So, which cards currently in retail meet the above 4 requirements and
are:
a) Single DVI, AGP bus? (Radeon 9[2|6]00[pro|se])?
b) Single DVI, PCI bus?
c) Dual DVI, AGP bus?

Much Thanks!
