Hi,
Ive got a Dell 8300, with a Nvidea video card and I have tried Ubuntu and dambSmallLinux live cds and neither would run due to video drivers ?
I have an install version of Mandrake 9.2 and have tried it a few times but it doesnt have drivers for my Logitech cordless Keyboard & mouse or my Canon i350 printer or my Lexmark X75 printer scanner.
Can anyone tell me where to get linux drivers for hardware thats not supported by a distro ?

If you are looking to install a distro you should go with something more recent than Mandy 9.2.
Mandrake 10.1 official or SuSe 9.2 should be able to cope with dell machines I think, to name a couple, more n00b-friendly distros.
If you want to try a live-disc you should prolly go with knoppix before anything, I've been able to get 3.6 to run on some really funky hardware. And it's up to 3.7 now so it should be even better now. http://www.knoppix.org/
Yeah look at the date posted it is eons oldDidn't we sort this out ages ago Peerz?. Every now and again i go through a Linux stage where i get a few more cd's try them for a few days.
I got 18 free cd's in the post of a linux distro
^would've been cool.
time to add one thats really badass
Project Frenzy comes with over 400 tools for all kinds of computer emergencies. It fits on a mini-CD and best of all, its based on FreeBSD!!! A side note: you need to launch the gui manually. when it loads, its command prompt based. me being the linux noob, i have no idea how this would be achieved. any ideas?
Frenzy was recently /.ed. thats why i posted it here (also, it wasnt already posted, and it seems to be really good)

any one heard of project looking glass. its sun's 3d desktop that they are trying out. well they are making a livecd based on knoppix thats in early beta

its just for looking at really at the minute since the mirrors are amazingly slow and all the only torrent i can find is corrupted.

Great, now I have to get that one too.
It's based on gamesknoppix, cool.
It started off fast, then dropped to 15-16kB/sec, bugger!
