Fresh install of Ubuntu. Got all 204 updates and let them install. System said that there was no more updates to get. The driver was the one that it said i needed. I didnt bother to check it. It just said there was a restriced driver available and i installed it.
Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy is the one i am running. I do not have the Gutsy to run 8.04 Beta yet. Pun intended.
PS the card i run now is a 8600GT. Might help to know that as well.
