I use an nVidia TI4200/64
This is a nice 3D gaming card, but also happens to be a capable dual
head card. I use the DVI output for my flat panel and the SVGA output
for my older 21" monster monitor. I can control resolutions
independantly and use this setup for dual boot RH9 and WinXP without a
hitch. Im very pleased with it.
