hi, everybody

from time to time i appear to this forums, trying to permanently switch to pcbsd. however, my first machine had ati radeon card that doesn't work with freebsd so i gave it to my brother and took his.

however, that second machine is totally incompatible with pcbsd, and it's slower than first, so it was just temporary solution.

now, i'm buying a third one.
one of the machines i'm thinking about has Intel 82845G graphic card.

before i decide, does anyone know how this card works with pcbsd???

personal experience would be great. can i watch high quality divx movies without problems?

My notebook got 855GM and it does not work with DRI. With DRI disabled it works just great- don't expect great 3D experience though. 2D experience is plausible.
