Smile Re: Linux Graphics card support?

Ur card seems running in Ubuntu/Linux fine.
see below link for 6100:

The reason my efforts had always failed, it appears, was b/c the amd kernels and nvidia's binaries were not working well together. my first efforts were with the amd 64 kernels. Later, I switched to the k7 kernels under 32-bit but still no go. Due to another post:

I figured there must be something i'm fouling up. On a hunch, I went to the 686 kernel and voila it worked! BTW, in case someone wonders, I did download the nvidia driver for each respective kernel. At least for me, it turned out that it worked only under the 686 kernel. Now I have everything working!

Edit: I mentioned in the post before that the 6100 was not supported by the nvidia driver. I said that b/c the 6100 wasn't listed as supported by the driver on nvidia's site. But obviously i'm wrong.
