I plugged a Matrox Millennium II card into the box (a tough squeeze) and it worked beautifically. I had to use the kernel without a frame buffer device enabled, of course. The SVGA server even works quite nicely compared to the 8-bit TGA. My only concern now is if I choose to do a new install at some point. If the TGA device is already compiled into the kernel and not as a module, it would be impossible for me to recover, remotely or locally to recompile (among other things, no remote root login after install and no console to work with). Any ideas if the Redhat install is set up in such a way that I can do an install with a non-TGA video card? I dunno if anyone has tried.
