w00t, I am on linux! But still need some help :(


Recommended Posts

Well, today I downloaded and installed Mandrake 9, it was really not that hard to get going, the first problem I had was because I have 2 network cards, Mandrake only used DHCP on the one that isnt online, so I had to change some settings in the mandrake control center, and now it works fine (you see this right?) :p

Ok, here is the problem, if I make the screen res above 800X600, the right site of the screen is all blury, and I cant really see anything :(

How can I fix this? Mandrake detected the Video Card as an ATI Rage 8mb (that is what it is), so where can I find a better driver for this or get it to work in a higher resulution?

Thanks, so far, linux it pretty cool, I have not booted back into XP yet :p

Only an 8 MB video card?  You're due for an upgrade soon! :D

I am using a 2mb ATI rage II+ card (my parents), works just fine, sometimes large picture edditing can lag a bit, but for internet and non 3D games its great
