Is this likely to cause XRUNS? Ok, no use XFree's drivers. My point is that using AGP and the right accelerated drivers saves cpu and PCI resources. Vesafb is a for poorly supported graphics chips. Matrox is supported very well in XFree and the linux kernel. But most important is the realtime stuff mentioned by others. -- Frode Haugsgjerd Norway _______________________________________________ ardour-users-ardour.org mailing list ardour-users@lists.ardour.org http://lists.ardour.org/listinfo.cgi/ardour-users-ardour.orgReceived on Tue Dec 7 04:06:09 2004
