Okay, I'm having some issues here.&nbsp;&nbsp;I have slack 7, xfree86 3.3.x and an ATI Xpert2000 AGP video card.&nbsp;&nbsp;My current version of xfree86 won't even see my card.&nbsp;&nbsp;I've tried downloading xf86 4.0, the install goes okay but complains about 'Broken Pipes' after complaining about the path being too long/symbolic links.&nbsp;&nbsp;I've copied the files into /tempx - that should be a rather short path.&nbsp;&nbsp;Any ideas what's going on and any easier ways I can do this? <p> <br><a href=mailto:ille_pugil42@hotmail.com>ille_pugil42@hotmail.com</a><br><a href= Page</a><br>Linux rox!

well when I was trying to get my Geforce working with linux, I went to nvidia.com and they had Linux driver, with intructions on how to install them over xfree, maybe ATI has something similar, if the company doesnt have linux drivers, it just may be hard to force it to accept some resolutions. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href= </a><br>Experienced in , or have messed with : VC++, Borland C++ Builder, VJ++6(starting),VB-Dos, VB1 thru VB6, Delphi 3 pro, Borland C++ 3(DOS), Borland C++ 4.5, HTML,Visual InterDev 6, ASP(WebProgramming), QBasic(least i didnt start with COBOL)
