Long story short, I now have two Dimension PCs, one a 4300S (with the
aforementioned ATI Rage card) and the other a 2400. The 2400 is ~ 2X
faster than the 4300, so I'm trying to use it as my primary PC. The
2400 has an Intel 82845 chipset for graphics, and that chipset,
apparently, doesn't much care for linux, especially not OpenGL under
linux.

So, I'm in the market for an inexpensive video card. Since the 2400
has PCI only, not AGP, I need a PCI video card for it. Any
suggestions?

Thx again,
-Z
