Please include some actual details about what you are trying to do, such as the video card you are using, your distro, and what kind of configuration you are trying to set up. Are you just trying to install it, or are you trying to do something special with it such as set up a dual head? Your comment is too vague to respond to as it now stands. -- J.W.
