After the trouble I have had installing an X server for my current
card I am thinking of forking out for a new, better supported card. I
currently have a Octek Speed-64 PCI SVGA card with an ARK2000 chipset
(http://www.ocean.aust.com/speed64.htm), but I was not able to run
even the generic X server in 640-480. I have been able to configure
PPP etc. without a glich. Is X really that hard!? So my question is,
do I give up on this card or do I persist? If I go and get another
card what is best? I've had my eye on a Matrox card, is this well
supported?

Some advice on getting my Octek card working or a better card to use
would be great.

Regards
Glen Williams
