Hi,

i know that it is "Haiku" ;) but it's more easy to search for "Haiku-OS"
than for "Haiku" if i wan't find poetry ;) so i habit to use "Haiku-OS" ^^.
Anyway, that the graphics card will not be supported natively i already
expected. What kind of graphics card would be natively supported by Haiku (i
would prefer an nVidia card)?

regards,
Robert
