UnguidedHello all. I was at my local computer store and the sales person was telling me that a lot of linux users were switching to ati radeon cards instead of nvidia. He said that nvidia stopped support for linux. Anyone know if this is true and if not can you tell me why they are using ati radeon cards instead of nvidia?12:35
not_foundUnguided, doesn't sound true12:44
not_foundI haven't heard of this at any rate12:44
Unguidednot_found: me neither. Traditionally, nvidia has always done a better job of linux support. I left wondering if he was just trying to sell something. He works on commission.12:45
