What drivers come installed with a distro seeing that we all have different hardware in our little plastic adding machines? This means that there would be more than one driver for each component of the hardware and upon installation the installer selects a driver that is the most appropriate for the hardware with the user updating to a more precise driver once the system is up and fully running. Yes? All distros would also have a common stock of drivers. Yes?
The reason I want to know this, is that I am having trouble with one card which I can sidetrack but should I know what drivers that are in the distro I can look for another card that those drivers support better than the card I presently have.
Though I have time to work things out but when it comes to technology of any sort I build two bridges to surmount the obstacle. I am also laying the foundations for a third and more costly bridge should it be required.
