- I went out today to get a new VGA card, and the local
- dealer had a Boca VGA 1024K. From my past experience, I thought
- the Boca cards had the ET-4000 chipset. Wrong.. they now use
- the Sirrus chip set. Is the Sirrus chip set compatible with
- the ET-4000 (and thus Linux/X)? I really want to buy a card
- today, and the only other card they have is a Trident 8900C
- with 1Meg.. Any comments..?
