You can get ATI cards with tv-out for about $10 that work in linux. Why would you want to go with anything made by SIS?

this may be a surprise to you but he may not even have that much money to spare or it might be a system where he can't upgrade. |

the problem is that my nvidia Ti4200 does not work in linux with the tv-out...
so i thought that if i bought a PCI graphicscard i could have them both at the same time, one to the CRT and one to the TV... =) |
