Since my first experience with Linux, the Nvidia video cards have always been
a problem. I have had to learn new tactics to get the drivers to install
everytime I upgrade. Finally, they have a new driver that is supposed to fix
the problem. I had many problems getting that driver to work, and once I was
able to get it "successfully" installed, it rewards me with a black screen
when I try to use the 3d acceleration. The worst purchase I have ever made in
hardware was the Nvidia graphics cards (and I put them on all of my systems).
At this point, I don't think I am interested in dealing with these cards
anymore. Considering the amount of time I have spent playing with them - they
are far more expensive than they are worth. I need to move on and get a
graphics card that it automatically configured when I install Linux. Every
other piece of hardware that I have works this way.
I am thinking that I want 64 ram, 3D graphics card, that is automatically
installed CORRECTLY from the installation of most versions of Linux (I am on
Suse).
Anyone have recommendations from personal experience?
