Hello gentoo-user, At last I'm actually using the ATI drivers, they're in, they work and I can now use TVTime and Xawtv as well as kdetv.
TV applications are still jumpy at full screen and glxgears still takes a
dive at full screen so 3d isn't working yet. Compared to what I've just
been I think getting that to work will be a doddle... With the help of you
kind lot that is :)
I've been back through every post and redone everything suggested so far
but I must be missing something. Here is the output I get from those
suggestions so far along my current xorg.conf.
I've put xorg.conf back into /etc/X11 where it belongs.
My utmost apologies to those that are getting bored with me but I can just
feel the end is nigh... Hopefully!
