need help about video card and Win98



Hi there!

I tried installing Linux(Red Hat 5.0) about a month
ago and I encountered the following problems.

1.)  I couldn't run the X Windows GUI because I
couldn't setup my video card(RivaTNT) which had 16Mb
memory.

2.)  Dual boot was successful but when I went into
Win98 and opened explorer, my computer hanged.  (I
think it was trying to access the linux partition...)

I had to remove Linux totally from the hard drive to
get my computer up and running again.

Anyway, my question is will I encounter the same
problem if I use the Debian distribution?  Is there a
workaround?

Thanks.
