Re: ATI Radeon 9200 / 9600 on a 2.6.x kernel



Elimar, Roberto, Danke/gracias.

I don't plan on gaming much on Linux, it's more my development

triple-boots Linux/XP/SunOS). If worse comes to worse, I still have the
on-board controller which sucks big time, but...

Thanks for taking the time to answer !

Regards,

Jeff
