Problem with Mandrake 10.1 - Noob

dzazax
Hi, I'm having a video card problem with Mandrake 10. 1 It seems my Gigabyte Radeon 9500 driver is not available in Mandrake 10. 1. During the installation, the GUI came out perfectly. During the post installation process to configure the video driver, all tests fail but I decided to try Radeon fglrx.
