ATI Video Driver
I recent got a Compaq Presario with Vista Installed. I reformatted the drive and loaded Redhat Fedora. It runs well except I can only get 800 X 600 resolution. The motherboard has integrated ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 graphics and I cannot locate a linux driver for that chipset. Any ideas? Thanks. flacker

is your linux 32bit or 64bit? i think that makes a difference in what drivers you choose. another thing, i checked here and they have drivers for Xpress800 and then directly for Xpress1300. In fact, the ATI site does not have any chipset called X1100 listed at all!!
