Hi All.

I'm thinking of putting some cheapo PC gfx card in my Mac, an old 7600
w/G3 card. I guess that wouldn't work in MacOS, but how about Linux?
Will Linux recognize the card and be able to use it or will I have to
spend a fortune on something like a Radeon 7000 Mac Edition to make
graphics less painfully slow on the machine?

Hi,
I have a standard Radeon 9200 in my Pegasos 2. I don't know if it would work or not on a Mac
though, but at least the problem would not be ppc-related.
