Both work without any problems and are well supported by the distribution itself. You can install and use the system with the xorg drivers as long as you don't have special requirements (e.g. dual head support or some features of hardware acceleration). I found the screen quality of both very similar, maybe the nvidia is a little little bit crispier. If you have to install the manufactures drivers, the matrox is easier to maintain in case of kernel updates (afer each update you have to boot in runlevel 3 and reinstall the driver from the command line). And sometimes you can't update your kernel until nvidia does release a new version of its drivers. And in case of xinerama nvidia has a own solution which works well but differs from the way is ist usually done in xorg. I have decided to replace my nvidia by a matrox. If you buy a new one, you should buy a 550, which can be operated by the free drivers in much more situations. Peter
