i know that at least one person has not got a TNT-2 M64 working,
with the latest downloadable image,
but my card hasn't arrived yet so i've not yet looked at what's wrong,
can it be fixed, etc.

The list of supported PC hardware is not clear as to whether Nvidia Tnt2
chipset is supported. It lists the TNT, and the Geforce2 MX as supported.
In the NOT supported section it lists the Geforce and mentions the Tnt2 in
brackets with reference to a RviaFB driver on Linux. The wording is as
follows :

"nVidia GeForce (In linux this works on the RivaFB driver, as is the TNT2,
apparently they are not similar enough)"

So is the Tnt2 supported or not? If not is there a way to get it working
somehow?

Thanks,
