Post by Jan Meye » Tue, 15 Sep 1998 04:00:00



Hi,

I am about to buy a Dell Inspiron Laptop, which comes with the following
graphics adapter:

     ATI Rage Pro 3D Video with 2X AGP, 8MB

Can anybody tell me, if X-Windows will run with this graphics adapter.

Thanks.

regards,

        Jan

This looks like the same card as the Xpert98 which is what I am running
X on right now on my PC with the Mach64 X server.  the Setup program.
didn't get it quite right, I used the following chart to select the dot
clock.

I have an IBM Aptiva with ATI Rage Pro 3D Video with 2X AGP 4M and the
video card
works fine with RedHat 5.1. I am not sure if it will work with 8M but
strongly believe so.
