Uhm. I believe that I offered to try helping in some capacity. I
specifically asked you for a bunch of information and you never sent it
to the list (or to me in private)!

If you take your car to the mechanic and tell them "It doesn't work and
I tried everything", and then leave it at that (and not answer their
follow-up questions), I hardly expect you will get good service. You are
probably likely to be gouged in that scenario too.

None of us can magically deduce if even your Linux text console is
working from the information you gave. So until you respond with more
information, such as log files, dmesg output, lspci output, and telling
us if X11 is not working, or if DRI in X11 is not working, etc... If X11
won't even start, it is even possible that the driver just isn't
recognizing the PCI IDs on your card. If you were to send some of the
info that was requested, your problem might be solved within the week!
My point is that your card isn't working because of some problem that
hasn't been solved yet. Part of the problem-solving process is
diagnosis, and this requires you to answer the questions and requests
your are asked.

Honestly, it might just be better for you and everyone else if you
disassemble everything, pack it back into the boxes, and return it all
and not touch computer hardware anymore (or anything else with small
parts).
