Hello, I haven't received comments on my patch for <a href="https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6796">https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6796</a> (<a href="https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=8275"> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=8275</a>), so I'm asking for help here. Sorry for the noise towards the beginning of the bug report (filed last spring), but the basic problem is that "ati" does not give control to "radeon" with many X300/X600/X700/X800-series cards (16 duplicates in Ubuntu's bug tracker), thus giving no X for many newbies. A symptom of the problem is that "(WW) ATI: PCI Mach64 in slot 1:0:0 could not be detected!" is seen in Xorg.0.log, which led me originally to see why it's even thinking there should be a Mach64 there. I'm in no way familiar with any of <a href="http://X.org">X.org</a> code, so I'm just proposing something since no-one else is doing it. I've heard about the autoconfiguration branch of <a href="http://X.org">X.org</a> (to be included in 7.3)... is the ati wrapper going away then? If you need any more information / debug output, just tell. BR, Timo Jyrinki
