Thread: Need help with video drivers please...


i know you've heard before i'm new ubuntu or linux os , i'm having trouble getting full capabilities of video cards. installed ubuntu v11.04 on 2 of machines old comp had laying around , current laptop use.

first desktop computer i'm having problems doesn't seem want 3d or animations (ccsm). when move windows around it's choppy when install windows os fresh no video drivers. read on forums looking easy way install drivers since i'm new linux don't know lingo or how use efficiently. maybe can show me easier way.

desktop specs
mother board: gigabyte ga-8ipe1000(-l) v2.0
cpu: intel pentium 4 2600 mhz
ram: 2 gigs
video: radeon x1650 512 mb
sound: sb0090 audigy platinum sound card
hdd: 80 gigs
os: windows xp & ubuntu 11.04 (dual boot)

second on laptop don't know if there's update possibly better drivers 1 come ubuntu 11.04. of animations work in ccsm, i'm guessing don't b/c laptop doesn't have power in hardware.

laptop specs
cpu:1.60 ghz intel® pentium® dual core processor t2060
ram: 1024mb ddr2 (2 dimm)
video: intel graphics media accelerator 950
