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.
