Anyone know which video cards work best with FreeBSD? I checked with one local
PC vendor and he has a dozen different ones, from $40 to $400. I don't
want to waste my money buying a cheap one that I will want to replace as
soon as I get it working. On the other hand, I don't want to spend a lot
on a fancy one with a bunch of features that the OS can't take full
advantage of.

I have a cheap generic S3 which cost me around $40 and it works fine
with X in 800x600 mode, 256 colors. With a second meg of videoram it
could do 1280x1024.

1. What video card works best with X?
Currently I have got a W32p based card, it works with the SVGA-server
and almost with the W32 server. However, I am planning to upgrade the
video to something faster and more compatible, but I am not sure what
card that works best together with X.
How about S3 64V+ and 16bpp? Will that work well?
There's nothing new about Matrox Millenium, I guess...?
When will the W32-server support more than 8bpp?
Any opinions? I don't want to sit there with a half-compatible card
this time... :-/
