ATI, Nvidia, Intel, Matrox, ou mesmo quen use tarxetas gráficas Voodoo poden ou non experimentar certos problemas. A maioría destas tarxetas poderían non ofrecer render sen empregar o que se coñece como controlador binario ou restrinxido. Tanto ATI como Nvida requiren controladores para render acelerado. As tarxetas integradas Intel, combinadas cunha pantalla ancha normalmente precisarán dunha utilidade adicional para lograr resolucións e frecuencias de refresco apropiadas. Estas opcións explícanse nas subseccións seguintes.
Pódese atopar máis información acerca das tarxetas de video no sitio de documentación da comunidade Ubuntu en https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Video.
