Bob,

I don't think the G450 agp cards are going to work for
the linux boxes.  Just spent the better part of yesterday
trying to get them to work.  Finally, they sorta worked
with 2.4 kernel and 4.0.2 xserver...  It's not a very viable
general solution.

Unfortunately, I got the same video card with all boxes,
for redundancy.  That's what you get for thinking ;-)

The G450 seems to work fine with windows 2000, so the display unit
should be fine.

What video card is recommended for the distribution of Redhat
that is in use.  (For the Audio and Video capture machines) 

Cheers, Gary
