Re: Problems with fglrx driver and kernel 2.6

Try to set 

BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Screen 0

in your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. PCI:1:0:1 is the second dvi-one.
Check this by your output of lspci -v.

But anyway: Blow away that strange commercial driver. Use the DRI
driver from the the kernel source tree. It works perfect with a
R250 (Radeon 9000 [pro]) chip on XFree86 4.3 and Kernel 2.6.0 ;-)
