If this is a forum that discusses hp pavilion zd7000 then I am in the right place. I am having major problems with my video card. Each time I try to set up my tv to clone my computer, it does not work. When in my display properties my display name shows as follows: (Multiple Monitors) on NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5600. If anyone has experience or seen this please replay. My problem is when I click advanced, then the GeForce tab, and try to change the display mode to clone, it does not give me the option. Can anyone help me with this as I am very computer illiterate to the point where I think I need a just for dummies and blondes book on computers!!!

Help

if you can't find the solution here, you can always take a look at http://www.zd7000forums.com. They have a linux section too.

Warning - I would not purchase the new zd8000 series from HP.

They are now using ATI, which any Linux knows that there drivers SUCK (either the xfree/xorg or the "official" ATI ones). Maybe HP will do the right thing, one day, and make either ATI or Nvidia an option for the user.

The HP zd7000 has a known design flaw that HP will fix for free, even if the laptop is out of warranty.

The design flaw has something to do with the video card, which is nvidea. If you send the laptop in to get it fixed, they will replace the motherboard which includes ATI Radeon Mobility X600 graphics, and rebadge your zd7000 as zd7000A.

I just got mine back from getting serviced. Now the nvidia driver will not load (obviously) and X will not start (surprise, surprise).

I went to rebuild the kernel with the proper driver, but the only thing ATI or radeon-related was an option for radeonfb.

I searched portage for "ATI" and "radeon" and found nothing.

Anybody here know where I can get the linux drivers for this new graphics card?

BTW, my FreeBSd partition has the same problem.
