well so far it has worked all the up to 8.04 ubuntu, could you post more information about your hardware?

Also if you had it working in a previous version of Ultimate, or Ubuntu, you may try searching for driver updates.

This is what I have found so far

I made it work on the 32 bit version, but I can't make it work on 64 bits, I can't find the 64 bit drivers. Those instructions only work for 32 bit. I searched everywhere and I can't find anything. Thank you anyway.

so no driver updates and no 64bit drivers are available?

sorry to hear that, but no worries 32bit Ultimate Edition 2.0 is soon on the way, just a little more time.


Oh BTW, welcome to the forums.
