I am a new Linux convert, and I am having serious problems finding a graphics card driver. I am using Ubuntu, but the driver it installs doesn't support my card. In fact, my card isn't even listed on the official driver list. (For Windows OR Linux) I am using a Radeon Xpress 1100. If I am unable to find proprietary drivers, I know there are supposedly a couple choices for 3rd party/open source drivers, so which would you reccomend? Do Either support my card?

Thank you for your time, as I am still unexperienced and I was unable to get any information on this on my own

I'll try the 1250 (yes, the 1100 is integrated as well) and if that doesn't work out I will follow your guide. Thanks a ton
