Thanks to all for the ideas. I will investigate Novatech, Linux
Questions and Ebuyer.

Odd indeed. I'm not sure what type of VGA I have, I will look into 
that. I didn't know there was more than one.

My graphics card has a 3D mode, but I haven't used it for years. It 
was active under SuSE and I think it caused the system to crash 
sometimes. I have not bothered to get the 3D driver for my current 
Debian system, so I don't think I run anything that might benefit 
from having it.

I agree! Not so much "preferred" as merely "local", I think.
