Tag Archive for 'X.org configuration'

I haven’t used my fairly old Dell Inspiron 2600, which I bought in the sum­mer of 2002, for quite some time, and had been think­ing to give it to my mother, but first I wanted to install and setup Linux, so that I wouldn’t have to fix some­thing in the sys­tem all the time, and deal with vir­uses, tro­jans, poorly installed pro­gramms etc. How­ever, whilst I’ve attemp­ted to install pen­guinista OS sev­eral times over past couple of years (tried Ubuntu/Xubuntu, SUSE and Fedora), I’d con­stantly reached a dead­lock, because X-server in no way wanted to coöper­ate with on-board Intel graph­ics pro­cessor (notori­ous for that).
