    Like Windows, most Linux distros (including Fedora) have a pretty comprehensive driver database included on the disks, which should find a driver for pretty much anything you have.

    Do you have any hardware that you're particularily worried about not working?

    no not really, i presume d nvidia card will be included in that yeah? there's nothing i was woried about, its a standard, old, unused pc, i was hopin to install suse, its a 1 gig ram, 1.7 amd athlon xp2000, will this sufficiently run the latest SUSE distro with the XGL desktop do u think?

    excellent, what a fast reply btw, thanx!!

    This nVidia driver guide relates to Core 5, but should work for Core 6 as well if there isn't a driver available on the disk.
