problems with radeon driver
Hello,
I am running etch in an amd64 system with an ATI Radeon Mobility 9200
(AGP) video card. The ATI driver from x.org doesn't work with this card,
after a small GUI activity, the screen freezes. I've reported this
problem in the past. The only workaround I've found was to install the
fglrx-driver package, run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select the
fglrx driver instead the ati one. No more video freezes. But now totem
doesn't start, I get the message: The Application "totem" has quit
unexpectedly. This problem has to do exclusively with the fglrx driver.
I experimented with the ati and fglrx drivers in another i386 machine,
and totem didn't start with the fglrx driver. It works fine with the ati
driver from x.org.
regards
Marcelo
