I have a pentium 100 etc which has a Diamond Stealth 64 DRAM (2 Meg) video card 
(S3 86C764 chipset) installed.

After the trouble I had getting OS/2 to work with this card I thought I would 
check how others have faired before I committed myself.

So...Has anyone else had experiences with this video card (or others with the 
same chipset)?

And...The BIG question...Should I bother with Linux at all?
