New Monitor, no more 3D with ATI


I bought a 19´´ Flatscreen and lost my hardware acceleration! What happened?

I´ve got a Radeon X800GTO running with the 8.25.18 ati-driver. My former monitor was an old Eizo F56 and direct-rendering worked fine.
I just changed the horizontal sync- and vertical refresh-rate in my xorg.conf, everything looked good instead of this:

Quote:
glxinfo:
name of display: :0.0
display: :0 screen: 0
direct rendering: No

Here is my xorg.conf, maybe you can tell me what´s wrong:

Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Simple Layout"
Screen 0 "aticonfig-Screen[0]" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Section "Files"

# The default path is shown here.

Sorry, it wasn´t the monitor it was the X11 security update short before.
Reinstalling the ati-drivers dit it. Just trouble with ati...
