heyas all.
my 40 gig drive is going to good use now. I have installed UBUNTU and have ordered KUBUNTU.
I dont know how to install the driver for my ati radeon 9600xt.
Actually i dont know if i am meant to be downloading and installing XFREE86 or the XORG version of the driver. I am downloading them both but i dont know how to do anything in Linux really.
I dont know where I am meant to set up my modem or set up a net account. (no INETWIZ.EXE)
So yeah, can someone help me out with getting my ATI driver installed?
and does anyone know of a good long PDF file i can read and wrap my brain around.
I’m still a Windows user, but I want to use Linux as much as possible.
Thanks.
You need the xorg version… but to be honest, you don’t need to be installing it by hand, since there is a packaged version of the official ati driver in ubuntu. I don’t personally have one of those ATI cards but here is a guide: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Dapper_Installation_Guide it describes a couple methods of doing it, but method 1 should be sufficient.
As far as the modem is concerned these guys have some info: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_dapper , if your modem is supported out of the box all you need to do is goto System->Administation->Networking fiddle around with the modem connection setting and it should work just fine.
