If you recompiled your kernel, you may need to reinstall the drm-kernel part of GATOS. It depends on where you copied it the first time. If you put it in /lib/modules/2.4.21/kernel/drivers/char/drm/, they'll be overwritten when you do "make modules_install", so you need to recopy radeon.o. If you put it in lib/modules/2.4.21/misc, the docs at <http://www.reades.com/radeon.html> say it should still be there. My dumb ass got a All-In-Wonder 9000, so there's no way I can watch TV, but I was able to get GL working.. /jgt -- Gods are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of common sense. -- Chapman Cohen
