         <p>DrakX has a very comprehensive database of video cards and will usually
            correctly identify your video device.
         </p>
         
           
         <p>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: 
         </p>
         <div class="itemizedlist">
            <ul class="itemizedlist">
               <li class="listitem">
                          
                  <p>vendor</p>
                        
               </li>
               <li class="listitem">
                          
                  <p>then the name of your card</p>
                        
               </li>
               <li class="listitem">
                          
                  <p>and the type of card</p>
                        
               </li>
            </ul>
         </div>
         
           
         <p>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
         </p>
         
           
         <p>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.
         </p>
         
           
         <p>Be aware that if you select an incompatible driver you may only have access
            to the Commandline Interface.
         </p>
         
           
         <p>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.
         </p>
         
           
         <p>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.
