can you specify what kernel version you're using, and what the config file names are for these two kernel options? > - - configure xorg to use the "radeon"-driver (This is not just changing > one line, you will have to reconfigure the whole section because the > different drivers use different parameters) I thought I'd try your suggestion, since I already have modular xorg, and I'm getting fed-up with constantly-locking-up-ati-drivers. Also, what options do you have set in your xorg.conf file? Maybe even post your whole radeon "Device" section, if its small :) that would help me out a bit, I think. so far, I don't have dri (the Load "dri" command in xorg.conf locks up my laptop) thanks, -- Iain Buchanan <iaindb at netspace dot net dot au> Many people write memos to tell you they have nothing to say. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
