there are universal drivers on linux too... have you tried the startx command to get to xWindow? or did you even install any graphical interface? (KDE, Gnome, etc)
:ehh:
:wave:
Re: Linux which grafix card
I instaled KDE and Gnome but when i try startx i just get a black screen, its the same on all. I went to the graphics card and the OS's websites but none of them had drivers for my card. I could try gettin one of my old graphics cards and puttin that on too but then i'd have to keep swaping when i go on a different OS
Re: Linux which grafix card
well, something similar happened to me once, I got a weird view on the OS, and I just reinstalled and everything worked fine... maybe you should try the same...
Re: Linux which grafix card
If you want high end and Linux compatible, then a nVidia GeForce card will probably be your best bet. The Linux drivers are less troublesome for nVidia. I hear ATIs can be a pain in the butt, although nVidias isn't exactly a walk in the park to install.
Re: Linux which grafix card
I've instaled each at least three times an gone through a couple of keyboards out of frustration. Maby i'll just get the latest version i can find an see if that works, its not asif Linux costs much(if anythin)
