Happy New Year one and all! Please celebrate responsibly.

It has been a joyous day. Merry Christmas to everyone everywhere.

I will leave help and advise to those who know what they are talking about, but I just want to let you know that this chipset does work well with every Linux distro I've tried including my currently installed Mint 12 and Kubuntu 11.10. I use the latest or near latest nVidia drivers. The adapter card...

Nice intro el-pampa. Welcome to Mint.
