I bought a new video card today. It's an nVidia GeForce4 420 MX, and it runs pretty good - when it chooses to. The problem is, nVidia released the drivers for Linux fairly recently. Since it's a 1.0 release, there are some serious bugs. OpenGL? Running high quality? X locks up hard, and blinks at you in the form of Scroll and Caps Lock. Weird. Return to Castle Wolfenstein will run okay in low graphics mode, but it's... well, low graphics mode. On a GeForce 4. Yuck.
So anyway, I posted a message to the nVidia news forum, and am awaiting a newer version of the drivers.
