graphics card purchase recommendations

[AZ_Pete]

I'd recommend starting at the Linux Hardware Database:
http://lhd.datapower.com/
It's a very useful site to find out how well given hardware works under
linux.
I don't have any specific suggestions on what to video card to buy, but I
can tell you I've had a VERY hard time getting various ATI Video Cards(AGP)
to work under Linux.  I could get the card to work, but always at a low
resolution, which was effectively unusable.

Hi all,
	I'm looking to buy a graphics card for my computer. I am looking
for:

1. quality
2. compatibility (SuSE 6.4, though I don't think that matters too much)
3. compatibility with my Voodoo3 GA (which I don't think I ever use since
I'm not a gamer)
3. a place to buy it

All public and private responses are welcome.

Thanks
