Hi,

try

it's probably the same problem.

Good luck,

If you don't have XFree-4.3.0 installed, your card won't be supported by DRI.
Your options are to either upgrade XFree to 4.3.0 and your drm kernel module [...you can get it here]

or get ATI's own proprietary drivers from their regular d/l location.
