Re: Permedia 2 AGP gfx card with Debian ?
that's somewhat strange since I've been successfully running a Diamond
Permedia 2 (Fire GL 1000 Pro) 8mb AGP card on both slackware and debian
systems using the Elsa_GLoria server that SuSE has had out since the
release of XFree86 3.3.2... That's good to hear that it isnt a libc5/libc6
problem. I'll be installing Debian 2.0 beta shortly and I'll let you know
how it turns out.
