Also thanks to Corrie for 10.04 disks. I have two questions......... 1) My Linux Box has a Gigabyte GV-N55128D Video Card that uses the Nvidia FX5500 chipset. I have never been able to get thev"fancy" graphics to work and hope to get it working now with 10.04. Googling for drivers I find a lot of reports of problems with this chipset. SO what should I do? Give it a try or replace the card? If the first option - can somebody advise me how and if the second opti0n what card is recommended? </blockquote><div> 1.1) Have you tried the official nVidia drivers? A gigabyte card with nVidia GPU, I wonder if that will work - The <a href="http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index5.aspx?lang=en-us">download page</a> "supported cards" tab lists FX5500... 1.2)I suggest a new card. Not a serious gamer? Research cards in your budget, read reviews and other linux user experiences about those cards. </div></div>
