  13. |         I read the FAQ and (as usual) I could not figure out whether my
  14. |         VGA card (a Trident "TVGA" ??) is currently supported by Linux 
  15. |         in running X. I heard that it was not supported and wanted to check 
  16. |         this out. If not, would someone point out which (inexpensive/affordable)
  17. |         cards are supported! Thanks a heap,
  18.
