Well I have Ubuntu Fiesty Fawn set up succesfully but only under the safe graphics mode from the boot menu. (The only distro I have ever got to work) I would like to get it to work under the default "Start/Install" menu option but I guess my card isn't the best. (Ati Radeon 9250 Gamer Edition) Usually when I have tried installing with other distros I get the blank black screen when it either tries to start X or GDM...
Anyways, if you know how to or a source great for sorting out this issue then please let me know.
Otherwise, please post what, if any, graphics cards that have worked without configuration on what linux distro. Since, I'm think of just selling the 9250 and buying something that will work. (I really want Gentoo)
Any other helpful insights are welcome. Thanks. =)
