I found the following page for the k8m800 motherboard. Everything I have found from via is sub par to say the least. It has a via_drv.o file that "seems" to do something. (cant see as I'm home). hope this helps someone else... http://leenooks.com/233 jerry ------ VIA's support for their Unichrome chipsets on Linux is a little lacking. I got a system with one of these. It even had Linspire preinstalled, and running in vesa mode. There's a project for this, but from reading their site it looks they don't have the Unichrome Pro working well yet. http://unichrome.sourceforge.net/ You might try buying one in this case. Even most of the cheapest should give a significant improvement, provided that they have 3d support and working Linux drivers.
