Nvidia 6800GS

Works Like a charm :D
Some things to say -
First off- I'm a big time 'noob' to any kind of linux, I had some issues with Nvidia control manager not writing the adjustments to xorg.conf file. I'm sure there is a way to troubleshoot Nvidia in itself, but didn't want to go there. This is how I got it to work. Don't laugh or poke fun, it worked. If somebody has issues with Nvidia like I did, feel free to make a post, and with any luck, somebody that knows what they are doing/talking about will lend you a 'correct way' of fixing your prob.

Nvidia 6800GS Works with no issues on install. Twin View, and dual X work also.However ... I did have some issues with getting dual X to work but I think it was just the 'noob' in me. Nvidia control manager would not write to xorg.conf. After making all the personal prefferance adjustments on how I wanted my displays to work and in witch orientation, I had to click "Preview" button in control manager > select all > copy > close out preview > open terminal > sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf > File > "save as" > xorg.conf_yourcurrentdate_or_name_for_restore_point> close text editor> terminal > sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf > select all and delete > then paste (Ctrl+v or right click > paste) in the screen you coppied earlier from the preview > then click 'save' icon. Re-boot and you now have dual X (two monitors / monitor + TV, ect.) with their own desktops - very cool, or twin view witch is like "spanning" in a Windows enviroment where it stretches out your desktop over multiple displays.

Motherboards with Nvidia 7050PV chipsets can be used with Ultimate, with some minor tweaking of the xorg.conf

Radeon xpress 200 integrated

radeon xpress 200 integrated. works perfectly aside from a slight flicker at boot. aside from that no probs. pretty good performance too for an integrated gpu. note: only on fiesty based systems. i DONT recommend this on gutsy resolution is HUGE to the point that its not usable at all.

edit: my mistake. ive done some investigation. works fine with gutsy as long as you use an old version of xserver-xorg-ati (version from fiesty installs fine in gutsy and fixes it). can also use fglrx with no problems
