[gölge]

Confuse-mode is on.

Version 2007, 2008.2 or 2009.2. 2007 is too old, i understand that. But what with 2008.2 and 2009.2? - Can anybody confirm that ATI card (title) will work on that Pardus? I have here one last cd - i must make my mind on that x).

if you have an usb stick, you can install from usb to do not waste cds. click here...

when i saying payment i mean buying a product. if i bought a product, why cant i use it with linux?  why should i wait for non-official drivers, while windows users doesnt have to wait? now i am writing this message on windows, cos i couldnt get my ati x2500 card work with any of linux distributions.

but as i said before, they dont sell those products by force. we buy them...

Ohhhh    Got it.. And your correct, we ultimately can buy the card -or- not.

Ok, i have found the answer.

Downloading other versions of Pardus and reinstalling it, was nothing else but waste of time. Sure, ATI drivers are installed, but still i can't configure it (like in Pardus 2009.2 for instance). I have simply modify main fonts and disable some effects (anti-aliasing, fonts dpi). Now i can work, read, ... and my eyes won't burn x).

Thanks for all replies
