The worst thing about X11 (X-Window) is that driver support for video cards is scanty. I don't know what kind of support X has for ATI cards because quite frankly I don't use ATI cards on my linux boxes. Most of the nvidia drivers are fairly stable. Keep in mind Fedora has a lot of experimental code. If you want a more stable Linux distro (short for distrobution) check out Ubuntu (http://www.ubuntu.com/). These guys have the best distro going for desktop linux. When you do install Ubuntu (or any other Linux distro for that matter) you want to be careful because as much as I hate to say this most of the distro's out there aren't really secured. I guess you should be ok if you're behind a NAT/firewall router. Anyhow - if you need any help feel free to email me - I won't post my email here for spam protection but I think you have it since it's required for me to post this message. -Youssuf Mona,
