install disk

[Michael Shelby]

         OK, I am having a challenging time with my video drivers, which I
am not complaining, I knew this whole process  was going to be an experience
builder, I like a challenge. I am a game designer in the works that is why I
am liking this OS because of all the different developing software they have
that are open source. Any way I finally fingered out how to use the terminal
to install the ATI drivers for my card, strait from ati web site, run the
aticonfig, which i dont know if I am soppost to modify any thing, reboot and
it loads to the blue and white load screen and freezes. had to reinstall
fresh. You said

If you could forward this to him or tell me where to contact him via email,

I can not do any 3D modeling  or relly anything that has to use any 3D
rendering like some of the 3d games you can install and the desktop effects
will not enable.
