Hello Abdalrhman_Rafik,

 

 

I understand you are trying to find Linux* graphics drivers for Intel® G41 Express Chipset.

 

 

Let me apologize for any inconvenience this issue may be causing to you.

 

 

What happens is that graphics drivers for Linux* operating system are provided by the Linux* Community directly. Graphics drivers we have on our website will run on Windows* operating systems only. I recommend contacting the Ubuntu Community so they can provide proper information about Intel® graphics drivers for Linux*. This link will give you their contact information http://community.ubuntu.com/help-information/finding-help/support/ http://community.ubuntu.com/help-information/finding-help/support/

 

 

You can find additional information about Linux* drivers on Intel® products in the following link https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/000005520.html https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/000005520.html

 

 

Regards,

 

Fred D.
