Mandriva install problem with Radeon 8500

parx86
I'm trying to install Mandriva Limited Edition 2005 DVD on my system as a dual boot with Windows, and I keep running into a problem with my graphics card. The install goes fine all the way up to where I configure my devices, and all of them are found automatically except my video card.

Dual Boot FC4 and WinXP, but KEEP my Windows MBR

lvglen
I've been reading all the posts about setting up a dual-boot system, but they all seem to have a common thread. Namely, write over your Windows MBR with the GRUB loader. The problem is, I DON'T WANT TO DO THAT! It's such a PITA if I want to uninstall Linux to rewrite the MBR in WinXP with SATA drives.

Burning pictures

Justbill
Is it possible to burn pictures (photo's) to a disc that can be played back on a DVD player on a television? I am using FC4, I have K3b as one option as my burning tool. I tried this once, and burned the pictures as a DVD data project, and the DVD player said the disc didn't have playback feature.
