Full advantage of graphics card on ubuntu vm

ZeroShade · 06-27-2008, 11:28 PM

I've started to run ubuntu on my machine as a virtual machine... how can I take full advantage of my graphics card (geforce 9800gx2) in ubuntu... or can I? I tried looking for drivers but I couldn't find any. Any ideas?

Go to System->Administration->Hardware Drivers and enable de driver for your card, or use the EnvyNG to install the latest drivers.
