[elrepo] Question about nvidia/radeon

[Maarten]

Yes I knew the AMD link was just checking if the kmod-fglrx supports
that card, so no.  It will still be a

couple of months before I actually buy a new card. Just gathering some
info now to help me make a

choice and so that I'll be prepared to know where to find the needed
drivers when I actually do

have the card 

Cheers!
