I install F7 and now i just want to get Beryl to work.
My secondary objectives are to find a good torrent of XP, when i use azereus i will see things like " peers 0(125) seeds 0(123)" So i am like !!? i cannot download torrents? huh why wont they connect? So i need help on that too.
But back to beryl, I install,run and WHITE SCREEN! HUH????? Yeah i get a solid white screen!!!
I am using a Diamond ATI Stealth X1550 256mb graphics card does Linux support this?
Quick update: While in this white screen i screwed with random buttons and mouse motions and it is actually a 3d hexagon i think. On all faces it is white with any shadow effects and on the top and bottom it is black the the Fedora Emblem in the center. Please help.

I went to ati.com and i did not see my card listed? So i selected a card that was the closest titled.
I am using an ATI Diamond Stealth X1550 256mb PCI-E
Something that confuses me is that Diamond and ATI are different companies aren't they?
Anyway i checked there side too and nothing. :(
I didn't see anything on linux.
Are there any drivers created by the linux community?
Like modded drivers or custom made?
Anyway when i downloaded what i did find from ati.com i ran it (i think i executed it i am still VERY new/noobish/confused with linux interface) and a window and it says something about binary or unicode problems i..forgot. So what does it mean?
