inline:Portal/IDB/logo_portal.png Welcome on Debian graphics card

inline:Portal/IDB/icon-xvideo-32x32.png This article talk about graphics card installations. Installation can use two stages which are driver installation and device configuration. Sometimes, videocards are detected automatically (native support) but 3D acceleration support often need proprietary driver.

This part shows a list of hardware ordered by manufacturer. The full list of all chipsets can be found on Wikipedia: chipset documentation page. If you don't know your graphic card visit [:HowToIdentifyADevice:hardware identification page] to identify your card.

Technical words can be used but explained.

ATI

The free driver from X.org in Etch supports cards with r1xx to r2xx chipsets with 2D and 3D support. 3D support for r3xx and r4xx is still labeled as experimental and has been reverse-engineered. r5xx and r6xx cards are completely unsupported with free drivers.

There's also a proprietary driver from ATI, which is available in non-free.
