I wan't to Swinch over to linux from windows because i'am using an illegal copy of windows and i don't like it. Also since i've joined BE Comp sci. i think learning programming thro' linux is better as i can help the community in future. Moreover i like the policy of Opensource software movement.
So i wan't to switch over to linux. I tried to install the distros from the Digit DVD's, but i face a problems when installing.
1. They donot install or show up errors when i use my AGP card (NVdia Ge-Force fx 5200). But when my take the card out and install using on board graphics (intel 865 Socket 478 and p4 3.0 ghz) all of them work well.
2. After Installing they don't detect my modem. So i'am not able to connect to internet.
3. They don't detect my printer or webcam either.
I tried everything i can inthe KDE and GNome Configuration Dialog but of no use.
If someone could help me sort out the following issues i would b greatful and bid goodbye to windows once and for all.
My Father has promised me to buy SUSE Linux 9.3 that costs rs 4500 approx. Is it worth the money? Will my Gfx card and modem problem wud b sorted out if i buy their commercial Edition ? Please help Me. Thanks in advance.
