    All Im trying to simply get 1024/768 resolution

    I have an ATI radeon 7000, an ATI PCI Mach64, and a diamond ATI S3
    Virge all PCI
    Nothing short of rebuilding the entire kernel and installing whatever
    *.rpms with the hopes that it will work. (Which I cant get the kernel
    indetified due to a missing lilo!)

    My question - What is the most recognizable vid card that will simply do
    1024x768.
     I dont do fancy gaming, I just want a resolution I can live with
    without having to waste another weekend trying to implement such a
    simple matter.

    Im running RH 3.0 ES

    Thanks!
    Bob
