hai all,

am quite new to linux (fedora). currently using Fc4. Thinking of switching over to Fc6.

Was browsing through these forums on Fc6 compatibilities and non-compatibilities towards Graphics related issues.

Would like to know whether Fc6 will work on following onboard Graphics chipset.

Motherboard Chipset : ATI RADEON* XPRESS 200
ATI RADEON XPRESS Northbridge
ATI IXP 450 Southbridge

Integrated Graphics : ATI RADEON XPRESS 200 Graphics

Support for external graphics via PCI Express* x16
connector

Processor : Dual core 2.66GHz

Simply put, that Chipset is notorious with Linux and the AMD drivers. However, if you have it working right now in FC4 there is a good chance it should work out with FC6 (when it comes to BIOS options, etc...). If you install a discrete graphics card you should also have no problems.
