Ati.2 are experimental drivers from gatos.sourceforge.net. In some cases, they 
will not work with newer boards. You would be better to uninstall ati.2, restart 
your Xserver and return to the regular XFree86 drivers.

I have just installed ati.2-4.3.20030307-1mdk package on a fresh install of
Mdk9.1 RC2 as I wanted to test tvout as requested in the cooker mailing list.
My PC is a Shuttle SS51G (SIS651 chipset) with a radeon 8500 card (actually an
hercules fdx 8500 LE flashed to radeon 8500 "build by ati").

Just after installing ati.2, I opened XFdrake verified options and selected
"test" ==> at this point the screen went black and the machine froze (no
keyboard & magic keys)

Below the relevant messaged in syslog :
mar  8 20:34:31 shuttle XFdrake[3102]: renamed file //etc/X11/XF86Config.test to
//etc/X11/XF86Config.test.old
mar  8 20:34:31 shuttle XFdrake[3102]: launched command: xauth add :9 . `mcookie`
mar  8 20:34:32 shuttle XFdrake[3102]: launched command: DISPLAY=:9
/usr/X11R6/bin/xtest
Mar  8 20:34:34 shuttle kernel: mtrr: no more MTRRs available
Mar  8 20:48:43 shuttle syslogd 1.4.1: restart.

After a reboot in init3, a launched a startx. Kde did start (I heard the sound
...) but the screen was all garbled and the mouse was displayed as a big garbled
square. I killed x and relaunched it and then it froze again.

If you need more debugging information, just provide me with some directions.


Regards & thanks for all that is already available !
