    Hi,

    I couldn't find any linux drivers for my graphics card. I don't think there have been any drivers released yet, but I thought I could ask here anyway.

    Its a Sapphire Radeon 9800Pro with 128mb (atlantis).

    If somebody knows any kind of solution..; greatly appreciated!

    Thanks

    Sorry if this is a really commonly asked question

    I don't think the driver will work, since the card in a 64-bit system. (sorry that I forgot to mention that)

    here are specs
    Asus A8V Deluxe
    64bit 3500+
    Sapphire Radeon 9800Pro 128

    Anybody know a solution to the driver problem?

    I have xorg installed.

    Thanks

    AFAIK the only way is to pester ATI to release 64-bit drivers. Maybe when the crowd gets big enough they'll do something.
    (I'm in the same position as you - can't move to Linux without no graphics drivers). :wallbash:
