Next try: Linux on the Desktop
I thought to give Linux another try on the desktop. It has been eight years since the last try and things probably have advanced enough to warent a better experience. After some fiddling with splitting the existing ntfs partition and a failed installation (screen went to black and it froze) I now have Ubuntu installed. Now the only thing that’s not working by default is my Dual-Screen Matrox P650 Graphic card…. so i’m still stuck with a single screen. The driver provided by Matrox is not working out of the box, so I’ll have to dive into forums, etc. to get it fixed, I hope.
