Hello Jan, Thank you for your fast response. I tried checking nVidia's website for the 7600GT driver (<a href="http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp">http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp </a>) and clicked the <a href="http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html">Linux, FreeBSD, and Solaris Drivers</a> link. I don't know which driver or link should I be clicking next. Pardon me for my ignorance since this is totally new for me. Thank you very much! <div>On 7/28/07, Justin <<a href="mailto:eqisow@gmail.com">eqisow@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Well, technically the 7600 GT only needs driver installation if you want 3D, but who doesn't want 3D? :p Installation if the restricted binary driver is pie though. System $B"*(B Administration $B"*(B Restricted Devices Manager should cover it. By the way, in case you're not familiar, the drivers are called restricted because they are binary closed source. There's really no need to let the language scare you, except for the inherent security weaknesses in using binary blobs. (You have to wait for nvidia to recognize/fix security issues) Good luck with your new Ubuntu system. :) <div><div>On 7/28/07, Jan Michelsburg <<a href="mailto:technowizard@gmx.net" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> technowizard@gmx.net</a>> wrote: </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000"><div> Hell Rupert The only piece of hardware that needs a driver is the 7600 GT. All other components are nativly supported.

I'm new to this OS since I've used Windows as an Operating System to my PC. I am planning to install and try it on my PC but I'm just wondering about the drivers I will be needing. My system's hardware are as follows: CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 3800+, 2.01 GHz Video: nVidia GeForce 7600 GT Sound: Realtek HD Audio output Memory: 2048MB Connection: NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller Will I need to download Linux drivers or are there native drivers included in the Ubuntu OS which can support the hardware for my PC. Any inputs will be very much appreciated. Thank you! </blockquote></div> </div></div> -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div> -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users" target="_blank"> https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div>
