Any graphics card y'all like to see tests run on?

[Austin English]

Howdy,

I'm about to get a new graphics card, because my current crappy Nvidia
FX 5200 doesn't support widescreen, and I just got a shiny nice new
22". So, I'm going to upgrade my graphics card. I don't have a
preference, since I don't game at all, just need something that will
run 1920x1040 and $200<=. So any of you d3d/ddraw guys, is there some
graphics card y'all need tests run on, and don't see around often,
because now's your chance...

FYI, there's a useful wiki page for this, but it probably needs to be updated:

Heh, apparently a few tweaks in nvidia-settings fixed it. Wow. Wished
I had quit being lazy a few weeks ago now...It wouldn't let me set it
in KDE's system settings, so I didn't bother trying nvidia.

I think I've burnt my brain out, had quite a few strange
occurences/dumb moments lately...I need a vacation.

Thanks Carl, and to the rest of the list, sorry for the noise/false
hope to d3d/ddraw guys.

Testing on Macs, especially the newer laptops would be nice :)

I have a MacBookPro and a MacBook here (the latter is the other person 
who lives here's.)

My roommate has a MacBook pro, so if testing anything specific is
needed, drop me a line.
