The Open Source radeon driver is awesome for 64-bit. It works great is rock solid and I don't have any trouble with it at all. In fact, the latest ATI (Proprietary) drivers are not that bad either, but since I don't need 3D for anything on this system I haven't setup that driver. For the record, I've had nothing but crap experiences with NVidia's cards in linux (and windows) and will not buy another NVidia card. So it's all a matter of personal preference. -- Frustra laborant quotquot se calculationibus fatigant pro inventione quadraturae circuli Mark Haney Sr. Systems Administrator ERC Broadband (828) 350-2415 Call (866) ERC-7110 for after hours support -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
