From the XFree86.org main page, I clicked on 'Support, Documentation and Resources', the on 'XFree86 video drivers support status', then on
Tseng Labs.
A suggestion: the Matrox Millennium II PCI 4 Mb card will give you up to 1280x1024, assuming that your monitor supports it. About $25 on ebay and one of the best 2D cards ever made. Still using it here on
daylily with a 19" Dell. Who needs a new eyeglass prescription every two years?

Laz, I installed RedHat 7.3 as a duel boot on my PII 300 box over the weekend. As a newbie to Linux as a desktop, I am impressed with the RedHat pkg. I downloaded the 3 disk images and burned the disks here for FREE.
Last year I purchased Suse Linux and tried it. I think the RedHat is better. One thing I really like with the RedHat distro is when using the Gnome GUI there is a automatic check for any patches available. Absolutely painless to download+install patches.

Your card is listed as supported in Turbolinux 7, which is fairly dated now.

Sounds like a Diamond SpeedStar. You know...you might not get much enjoyment out of Linux if you put it on a machine that once belonged to a guy named OGG.
You could build a new Duron based system for about $400.
