- Hello,
-
- I have a 386sx with a 40meg HD and a TRIDENT 8900B (i think) that
- I wanted to run Linux on. I have toyed with thoughts of getting
- a brand new card with an ET4000 chipset, spending the money instead on a
- larger drive, or just trying to sell the thing and start from scratch.
-
- my most recent idea was to possibly trade my card for my brother's. He
- does little with it and would be more than content with mine. I know
- it is an OAK but am not sure of the make yet. I will be heading home
- to MA from NJ this weekend and will check up on it. Could someone
- tell me what models are supported by X (if any) and what resolution
- I could expect and what color depth. Thank you for your time.
