    Hi,

    I'm about to buy a new PC but first I want to make sure that FC2 (burned
    DVD ISO) will install on it.

    The new PC contains an Intel 925X PCI Express chipset with ICH6-R, a ATi
    X800 graphics adapter, Soundblaster Audigy 2 and a Serial-ATA harddrive
    interface.

    The only thing I want to know is if FC2 will install on it and if X.org
    will be able to give me graphical desktop. I know there isn't a driver
    from ATi yet, but maybe I can do something with the built in radeon
    framebuffer driver in the kernel.

    I tried google and countless forums but no satisfying answer yet.

    Hope you guys can help me out.

    Regards,

    Frans Coppens
