Esp. since the Catalyst drives is now "replaced" (except it wasn't available for Linux, when I was trying to use it in the late fall. I had to replace a couple of users' video cards with *old* NVidia ones, after I rebuilt them as CentOS 7, because I *could* *not* get them to respond properly to their visualization software, nor to one's 27"? 29" diagonal monitor; it wouldn't support the video mode. At least I *can* rebuild it, NVidia does support it that way, and the rebuild always works. mark
