Linux - how to?

Hello All!

Since I was informed that I can ask here about linux... I'm asking :).

I tried to install Suse 10.4, Debian 4 (no lack CD after loading kernel not detected :(, LAN installation didn't work to...)

I tried Ubuntu and... I installed it :), but my Radeon was not detected... I couldn't set 1440x900 (after 3 days of fight I gave up...). I installed ATI drivers :), no lack. The Beryl newer work for me.

So as you see I'm really at the beginning of my "trip".

Any ideas? HELP!! :D.

My config:

Gigabyte GA G33M-DS2R, with e4300,
Radeon 1950xt,
Sound Blaster XFi Music
The rest is memory, and HDD and CD-RW :)

I think is to new ;).
