Re: The new Gnome 3 desktop won't load and run.



the easiest way to figure out whether your graphic card supports some 3d hardware acceleration is to install "torcs" (racing simulator) and run it :-) I test my graphic card almost every day, just to make the 3d hw acceleration does not disappear ;-)

Dear Jayson,

Here is what I have so far I hope it helps.
I tried the 2 commands suggested on ubuntu.com.
Command: lspci | grep VGA
Output:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation
82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 03)

Command: sudo lshw -C video
  Output:
   *-display
        description: VGA compatible controller

        vendor: Intel Corporation
        physical id: 2
        bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0
        version: 03
        width: 32 bits
        clock: 33MHz
        capabilities: pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom

        resources: irq:16 memory:e8000000-efffffff
memory:e7800000-e787ffff

Would information about the video card be shown on the BIOS screen?
Where else should I look?
