Title: Some help with Phat Linux
Post by: Jordan on 17 May 2003, 08:19

I downloaded and installed Phat Linux just today, and, from the vast array of video card choices, mine specifically isnt listed !!! Therefore I cannot start it up. Ive got a PowerColor 9500 Pro 128mb (runs on the Radeon 9700 gpu).  Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Why run Phat Linux when you can run Knoppix right off of the CD? You will make no mdofications on your harddrive, and Window$ won't choke..
