I don't think so, unless you're trying to be funny. We don't have to
do any of this pallaver for other several other graphics chipsets,
audio chipsets, USB chipsets, WiFi, etc. The system figures it out for
us. It was one of the great features of Linux of an install often
"just working" without any user jiggery pokery.
That's obviously desirable. But *someone* needs to do the work to make
it happen. Who? For what reward? If you want to use a card that will
cost you multi$$, it just may be worth Reading the Manual - once.
