Re: putzing with the Radeon 9000
Hi Yall & Russll,
you & me both, when it comes to these Radeon 9000 Pros.... *mutter-mutter*
We both get the same output from lspci.
On the XFree86 "xpert" list, the advise is too....
<snip>
The patch for Radoen 9000, M9 and Radeon 9700 2D support has been
submitted and will be in XFree CVS tree in the near future.
9000 and 8500 don't share the same IDs, that's for sure. Meanwhile
specifying ChipID in the config file with a 8500 or 7500 ID is a
correct solution for getting 9000 or M9 to work with the existing X4.2xx
Radoen dirver (2D part only, note this won't work with 9700).
If you specify ChipID with a 8500 ID (0x4242 for example), it will only
work with the single head config.
If you want both heads to work correctly with a dual-head/Xinerama
setup, use a 7500 (0x5157) or a VE ID (0x5159 for example).
