I don't, and I have the same problem (radeon 9800). It just doesn't respond to Control+Alt+F1. I have noticed though that at the very beginning (seconds after starting your window manager, with gnome session it didn't work) it will work. The other ugly solution that was working very good (perfectly!) was xserver 4.2 and the ati binaries. But it was giving me headaches with all the xlibmesa dependencies etc, so I installed 4.3 + vesa (ati just doesn't have any support for my card yet in 4.3). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
