ati radeon x1300 & Xorg 8.6


Hello you out there,

Ihot some problems making my ati radeon x1300 pro work together eith Xorg. Below, you can find what my xserver reports when trying to start it, followed by a print-out of my current xorg.conf. I also tried another configuartion , which i attatched the output of the xserver after the printout of xorg.conf of, together with the then current version of xorg.conf. one notice: you will notice that the first output talks about some device located at port "PCI:3:0:0": I also tried that config with the BusID set to "PCI:3:0:0" with the result, that the server now said the same but for some device at port "PCI:3:0:0". moreover, i do not use two monitors, i just tried to give the xserver what it wanted, i device - section for both ports ( PCI:3:0:0 & PCI:3:0:1) and pretending to have two monitors is the only way i know to do so...ouh, calling lspci gives me something like "ATI Tech. Inc vga device" at port 3:0:0 and something like "ATI Tech. Inc. Graphics Adaptor " for 3:0:1. the second output makes me guess that the problem is not located in the driver itself not supporting my card ( it is obviosly finding it). How to set it up?

thank you

michael
