Haven't used it, but I know it. That I have seen, Metro X does not yet
support it. Accelorated X however does support it. The chipset is the
S3 Virge chipset. It is a very nice card. You'll pay $99 for X server
and won't be able to use the real benefits of the 3d card, but you should
be happy with the price anyway. $199 for a 4 mb Diamond 3d is not bad.
