im having difficult installing my ati driver if i download the rpm file and then open it then it says install file so i do and in the middle o the package install it fails any ideas
First we need to know what distribution you have then we can progress. Assuming you have a newish graphics card that is supported by ati linux drivers they can be a pain to setup. But it works if you try real hard.
I think the reason your screen it big is because of the resolution. Smaller the resolution less you can fit on your screen.
i have mandrake 10.1 and a ati 9200 and im running 1024X480 so thats not the problem i know it the driver is there a good tutorial that can show me how to install tthe driver
