Dude, digital is superior to analog in terms of quality and performance. I'm talking about LCD, ok. That's one of the three things that I looked when buying this monitor. If Ubuntu can't support it, then it's a real shame.

give me ya specs...

btw if ubuntu can't support? now wait a minute, its the other way around! if ur video can't supoort ubuntu, thats the real shame!

Hell! DVI (Digital Visual Interface) is newer technology.

If you are saying Linux is for junk PCs, that's true.

nah... if some HW don't support linux it just means that it is for windows junkies who are at masses... and the company didn't care about the small market share for linux...

Linux works on any PC, juck or otherwise. Try that with Windows and you'll have hell to pay..

linux will run on anything... i mean ANYTHING... its just a matter of how much time you can spend on the process of getting it to run on that anything...

bhoomi thel walinuth duwanawada ?

There are some hardware that linux will not work on but this is because of the hardware manufacters refusing to support linux or refusing to give the white papers to the linux community.

yea may be who knows... i haven't tried it yet though

yea thats true.... but it doesn't mean that people can't hack the HW, or do some reverse engineering of windows drivers

and btw linux runs on a lot of HW, a LOT more than windows can run on.. becuase linux is open source people can port it to any HW, thats the bottom line.

Huh? This is not a new technology that was released just now. It's been there for a while. And what you say is only applicable to hardware that require drivers. This is just plug and play.

The fault is in Ubuntu 7.0.4 (don't know about old ones). I don't think it's a problem with Linux. I think other distros supports DVI.

It doesn't support digital video in my LCD. I have heard that some people's monitors' digital out has completely burned because of this. I won't use analog, just for a stupid OS (especially Linux!)

Hey STUPID...??????

WTF! Yeah, that's why out of the box hardware don't work sometimes I suppose. :rolleyes:

I read it over the internet when mine didn't work. I don't wanna try it and be the smart ass. Buy an LCD monitor with DVI port and see for yourself. BTW, make sure you don't mention to the technical person that you've been trying Ubuntu 7.0.4.

n dude abt dat junk thingy yes Linux is da only thing in this world dat can run it's latest release on a PII 233MHz n 32MB ram dats y ppl r dumpin windows its waste of money; try xubuntu its specially made for older pcs ...install on a normal machine(p4) it'd run like hell....unlike xp
