Mint is a built on top of ubuntu. Find it odd that Radeon does not work on it if it does on ubuntu. Has nothing to do with desktop environment just drivers. Amongst graphics cards, Radeon has the best open source driver support. NVIDIA in comparison is lousy. Check the latest Phoronix site for 65 GPU models and open source drivers. http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=massive_linux_gpus&num=1 -- Mohan Sundaram _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines
