I have that exact same pc.I bought a 8400 gs and it didnt work.wiped entire pc got bios update still didnt work.Put a Radeon in it and it worked fine.Any responses why it didnt work?(yes I installed drivers for it)
I made a customized version of Xubuntu which allows you to access Hulu's website by clicking Applications -> Multimedia -> Hulu TV (and also Applications -> Multimedia -> Hulu Movies). The customized Xubuntu is called XXCE. I just released XXCE 4.0 the other day (based on Jaunty). xxce(.)wordpress(.)com
I bought the same computer a few days ago. I just went with intel graphic cards, as I knew they have pretty good drivers for Linux. I recommend you use ArchLinux. It's much faster and simpler than Ubuntu.

Did that Dell come with an evil proprietary Operating System and then you exorcised the evil with a Live CD or did you buy it with ubuntu?

I got mine with the evil OS and had hard time installing Arch on it, since they had created three stupid primary partitions.
