Re: ati radeon XF86Config



Hello,

I didn't follow this thread, but to get mine to work, I downloaded
the binaries of X 4.2 on ftp.xfree86.org, launched ./install.sh and
ohh miracle, it worked right away :) No AGP, No FBdev.

The garbage on the screen might also come from an incorrect RAM setting.

I'd like to acknowledge the work of _ Greycat _ on #debian, allways there
to answer people's questions, evennow he didn't get this one :)
