a relatively recent (6000 series or better) nvidia based chipset with the
nvidia drivers will be the best inho.
I wouldn't do that. The nvidia drivers have a history of causing xruns.
Not that its that bad though. I have always used the nvidia drivers, and
they work just fine as long as you don't go below 1024 frames.
(the nv drivers, otoh, should be fine.)

I will shortly be upgrading to SUSE 10.2 and JackLab so my opinion might
shortly change - I'll let you know.

I go down to 3x64 (firewire) with rt-patched and the nvidia-binary-driver
loaded. Of course without xruns...
The only disadvantage of binary drivers is that the kernel guys will not help
you debugging if the problem is only there when the blob is loaded. Otherwise
the nvidia-driver works just fine.

Hi, I am a .signature virus. Please copy me into your ~/.signature and send me
to all your contacts.
After a month or so log in as root and do a rm / -rf. Or ask your
administrator to do so...

not my experience at all. never had any luck with nv doing multi-heads
either.
