Greetings I had my (relatively) nice video card (Radeon HD2400 Pro) go south on me recently. I had a lesser card (not entirely sure at this writing what it is, but think it is a little 64M basic digital graphics card - no-name brand) that gets me back online, but Linux has an issue and I am guessing it is the video driver.
When I boot the system, the login splash and everything looks perfect, but when I log in, I get a white screen completely devoid of ... anything. (Booting to Windoze works fine but it did go through a lot of graphics changes on it's own). I presume this is because my drivers are no longer valid for this card. What's the best way to go about resetting my video driver so that it can use this card? Do I need to re-install, or can I get away with a somewhat lighter touch? There is a possibility of a loaner card coming soon, so this isn't terribly critical, but it would be a bit more useful for me to run this old beast under Linux than under M$, so I figured a quick check with the group would not go amiss. Thanks! JC
