Ok, I figured it's easier to take a picture then it is to type it all out...



As you can see, I made the same mistake as Omar

It only shows one network interface which I can only assume is the ethernet card built in.

If it were even recognized it would say eth0 and eth1

You will need to find drivers

Ah

Right, I guess I'll have to take a look to find the drivers for it...



Also, do you know how I can find out what the GPU is so I can get the drivers for that too? Thanks man!

The manufacturer's website would most likely tell you what video chip set is in there, as well as google.

If it is not recognized in Linux, Linux won't tell you what it is.

I just found out that's it's an SiS 630...

I can't seem to find anything on drivers for Ubuntu, although I found out what it was in Ubuntu...

It should natively have drivers for it

They must be already installed then...

I remember I had Ubuntu on it a while ago and Compiz Fusion wouldn't work, so I guess it's just a crap card...

Most likely, SiS chips aren't really that great at doing anything advanced with Open GL

Alright, Thanks for the help, man!
If you have anything else that I made find useful or feel I need to know, that'd be great!
