  • Video card

    From Sean Dennis@618:618/1 to All on Sun Nov 23 17:46:20 2025
    Hello All,

    My BBS server, a HPE ProLiant ML110 G6, has a weird video chip on it--a Matrox G200e--that is poorly supported under modern Linux. I would like to be able to run X when I need it so I am wondering if any of you havwe a spare PCI/PCIe video card laying around that you don't need? It does not have to be powerful or anything; just anough to support a 19" high-resolution 4:3 monitor.

    I know I can go to eBay and buy one. I just prefer to buy one from friends first. :)

    I also found out that this server can support 16GB of ECC RAM and eBay has great prices on that too. Hoping to bump up this server from 8 GB to 16 GB of RAM.
