<H4><A NAME="vidix_nvidia">2.3.1.2.12.5 nVidia cards</A></H4>

<P>There's a relatively new nvidia driver out there, it's known to work on Riva
  128, TNT and GeForce2 chipsets, also others have been reported working.</P>

<P>It's recommended to use the binary nvidia drivers for X before using this
  vidix driver, because some of the registers haven't been discovered which
  need to be initialised, so it will probably fail with the opensource Xfree86
  nv.o driver.</P>

<P>Reports awaited!</P>
  
<H4><A NAME="vidix_sis">2.3.1.2.12.6 SiS cards</A></H4>

<P>This is a very experimental code too, as the nvidia_vid.</P>

<P>It's been tested on SiS 650/651/740 (the most common chipsets used in the 
SiS versions of the "Shuttle XPC" barebones boxes out there)</P>

<P>Reports awaited!</P>
