=P
Yeah, the board cost $200 in 2003. If I manage to get a job, I was
planning on building a dual opty of a similar quality sometime in the
second half of this year. Because I NEED 3D, I was planning to put 'doze
on the machine -- buying a copy of 'doze for the first time in 14 years.

Here's what my kernel configuration looks like: (2.6.19.1)  actual
chipset is AMD 762...

It was ages ago... I'd probably have to go back to 2.6.15 which had
other bugs on my system, most notoriously the bug which prevented MIDI
from working. -- it actually works in the current version... =(
