Probably for other cards too.

Nvidia GPUs are only available as cards AFAIK, so you definitely have a card
in there. Some gaming laptops do this.
Beneath that, you should have an integrated graphics controller, either an
Intel one if your CPU is an Intel one, or a Radeon one if your CPU is an AMD
one. Radeon GPUs suck,
Doesn't the Display program let one simply choose which GPU
to use when there's more than one (in a desktop PC, at

There might be a setting in your BIOS.
Hi guys,
I'm looking for a freedom friendly wifi-router which should fulfill the
following wishes. It should:
- be able to run a completely free router os
- provide wifi and the possibility to switch wifi on and off via a hardware
jumper
- provide (at least) 4 LAN ports
- not cost too much

Hi i have a question, why would one compile the kernel and what are the
benefits of doing so?
Greetings northernarcher:
Concerning your first question, the answer is no: Installing other Desktop
environments doesn't break the default gnome flashback so don't worry about
that.
And about your second question, when you install a new DE, an icon will apear
on the upper right corner
I can suggest the following:
-Gandi.net Use only FOOS and support Foss community and EFF
- Runbox.com Only FOSS, Privacy friendly
- Flokinet.is orangewebsite.com they are based on iceland and so are benefit
from MMI (modern media Initiative).
Good Luck
Also, to nitpick Fluxbox is but a window manager and not a full blown DE. And
gnome is what you have by default, unless you're running Trisquel mini where
lxde is the default.
or icecat:
