Re: Dell 8200 - NVIDIA GeForce4 440 Go - XF86

Tuc,

If you can get XFree86 4.2 to install (through ports or packages), you
might try this: http://www.marcuscom.com/g2g-xfree86/article.html

Note: I have not tried this as I have a supported video card in my Dell
i8000, but from what I hear, it works..  Atleast with a GeForce2 Go..

Regards,

Ben
