no one ?

im really as stumped as you are king.

I am as stumped as you are man, cuz im having the same problem. i mean, with fc2 defaults, it detects my 9800 pro as a non pro.

there is an option under system settings that is called display. Under there you may find a tab where you can toggle the Vcard. The weird thing is that i config it into a 9800 pro, make it acknowledge it, and restart xserver. and when it does restart, it still keeps detecting a 9800 non-pro.

So i tried to install the ATI drivers, and had no luck there anyway... so i would need some help also
