linux hardware drivers?

krimson_king · 07-14-2006, 04:15 PM

is there any other resource (other than googling) that i can use to find a listing of drivers for some of my hardware? my graphics card is a duck in water, and its pissing me off that my 19-inch widescreen samsung is stuck on a 1024-768 resolution because the drivers are .exe files only! any help please????

(i googled my monitor and couldnt find anything, im going to try the graphics card now.)

well there is a driver for gfx cards, but it depends on what card you have.
