Hello.
I'm running Etch with 2.6.17 kernel, xorg 7.0. I've installed ATi's driver (8.27.10) and have a Radeon X600XT card. Aticonfig have configured my xorg.conf.
My problem is that when X starts, my screen goes completely black - I then have to go to another screen, login and shut down gdm and restore my xorg.conf to it's original state before my xserver will work.
Here's my xorg.conf (the one that don't work):
Code:
# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

Any advice would be greatly appriciated.
EDIT: Read somewhere that it might help to comment out Load "dri" or Load "extmod". didn't work for me.
