RE: Graphics Card problem
Hiya,
Debian 2.2r3 doesn't support the newer graphics cards at the
moment (I assume you're trying to setup X). What you'll need to
do is install the basic SVGA 16 colour X then if you're up for it
make your system testing/unstable to get XFree86 4.1 which
supports the NVidia chipset (I use a GeForce 2 GTS at home)

Subject: Graphics Card problem
Hello,
I have just purchased debian 2.2r3 cd. Installation more or
less went fine until i had to setup my graphics card, then things
went pear-shaped. I have a Elsa Geforce 3 card and i have
tried various combinations to no avail. I have even tried all the
nvidia based drivers but no luck. Can any one help. If possible
can you explain the answer because I am a newbie.
Thanks
Eugene
