Yesterday...I tried to install Red Hat Linux 9.0 on my system (Celeron 266MHz, 256MB RAM, Sis 305 graphics accelerator with 32MB memory). Everythin went fine but wen I tried to boot into it 4 the 1st time it said that it didn't support the graphics card.

I wanted to know if therez a version of Linux which supports my graphics card????

you can probably try to use the vesa driver - this would work.
