Hi. I wonder if my video card is compatible with FC3 (STB Trio 64V+). I searched the archives, but any search gets an HTTP 400 error. I looked at www.fedorafaq.org, but there was nothing there. I also checked fedoranews. Nothing there either.
the s3 trio64 is supported as are most videocards that were available 5 years ago.
If you look in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/Cards you'll see quite a few s3 chipsets.
Then, I noticed that x.org rather than XFree86 is being used. The x.org site is very difficult to use, and the wiki seems to be hard to navigate. The only answer I got is that the support may lag XFree86 3.x. This is a little help, since it means that even if it works in, say, RedHat 7.3, it might not work in FC3. Or it might. But it is not guaranteed. I also tried google. Is there any web page that is as comprehensive and easy to navigate as the XFree86 site in relation to compatible video cards?
This probably is a FAQ.
Thanks!
