- <para>DrakX has a very comprehensive database of video cards and will
- usually correctly identify your video device.</para>
-
- <para>If the installer has not correctly detected your graphic card and you
- know which one you have, you can select it from the tree by: <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>vendor</para>
- </listitem>
-
- <listitem>
- <para>then the name of your card</para>
- </listitem>
-
- <listitem>
- <para>and the type of card</para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist></para>
-
- <para>If you cannot find your card in the vendor lists (because it's not yet
- in the database or it's an older card) you may find a suitable driver in the
- Xorg category</para>
-
- <para>The Xorg listing provides more than 40 generic and open source video
- card drivers. If you still can't find a named driver for your card there is
- the option of using the vesa driver which provides basic
- capabilities.</para>
-
- <para>Be aware that if you select an incompatible driver you may only have
- access to the Commandline Interface.</para>
-
- <para>Some video card manufacturers provide proprietary drivers for Linux
- which may only be available in the Nonfree repository and in some cases only
- from the card manufacturers' websites.</para>
-
- <para>The Nonfree repository needs to be explicitly enabled to access them.
- If you didn't select it previously, you should do this after your first
- reboot.</para>
