REeee-- I haven't formatted that drive yet. Pshaw.... I got on the internet and thought that was pretty cool. Then I tried to install those ATI drivers.

ATI Drivers for Linux?

I'll say they are a must.... you can easily screw the system if not...

If you are using Mandrake 9.2 I can email you the RPM and install of the ATI driver should be fairly easy -no compiling etc... You may still have to modify a config file -not sure, no ATI cards here. if you want me to email the rpm file just PM me with your email addy

The RPM is easy enough to get from the ATI site itself.
