Mark,

I was talking to the guys at PC Club on Friday.  One of the gentlemen tol=
d me the ATI 8500, which was on display, will most likely not work correc=
tly.  He stated the ATI 8500 uses mostly software to drive the graphics o=
f the card.

I do not know how much of this is true, because I have not read any info =
about the ATI 8500.  I do know the guys at PC Club are pretty much on top=
 of the computer hardware thing, so I would say the ATI 8500 would not ap=
pear on the HCL until someone writes software to run under Linux.

I would contact ATI about this and see what they say.


Regards,
Darren

I've been trying to see RH's HCL but the page doesn't appear.
Would anyone know if this video card is on their list?
