For the record, my system is a PII running at 350 MHz.  But that likely
won't matter much.  However, the bus speed might be an issue.  You can
set up your system to use a higher bus speed with AMDs, I think.

I've yet to look into the BIOS settings.  But my /proc/interrupts
doesn't show anything reserved for graphics or VGA, so I don't think
there is an IRQ being allocated to it.
