Is there any linux distribution that comes with this included in the iso? I want to be able to do a graphical install with my GF2 MX. Thanks

you can do it all with Mandrake 7.2
I believe it has a modified version of 4.01

I know it detects your Geforce2MX
& X-Windows will work fine (2D)

Give it a try if your new to Linux you'll probably really like Mandrake.

Good Luck

redhat 7.1 "fisher" has it, it also uses the 2.4 kernel... you can still have use x, just setup the card as a standard card capable of 1024x768 and then dl some drivers

I grabbed RedHat 7.0.90 "Fisher". Other than a problem with usb and difficulties getting my PPPoE to connect, it seems ok. Man, I've got alot to learn about *nix :D
