Vaio PCG-GRX500K
Submitted by T113 on 2006-01-11 18:21:23 This product has a rating of 5 out of 5 running under Ubuntu Linux Comments: Worked great from clean install. Note: This notebook has a Radeon Mobility 7500. This is an 'in-between' gpu, part R100, Part R200. The ATI Propriety driver will not support this chip. For full 3D support, you have to build and install DRI. Instructions here: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/ Note that with a clean install of Kubuntu, there were many packages that the DRI instructions leave out, which I had to add, one here, one there. It took several tries, but I was finally able to complete all the tasks, and tested with a linux-based install of Neverwinter Nights. Ran Great! |
