Hi mga sirs and maams.... I would just like to ask maybe some of you have encountered installing Ubuntu on A SiS-chipset mobo. SiS is, as I've read sa net, not friendly with linux. I tried running 7.x version and all I could get is the desktop, and network doesn't even work... luckily I have a copy of Ibex so this solved my net problem. Ang VGA na lang, kay vesa driver ra iya gagamiton. I tried downloading sis vga drivers for linux, but this only crashed my Xorg.
