Are you sure you really used the generic ATI driver? AFAIK the ati driver provided with x.org does NOT (yet) support the x1600 card. I guess you were using the kernel frame buffer but that is a completely different driver with no acceleration, even for 2D. Or maybe it was the generic vesa driver if you boot from BIOS. I can't use the native 1680x1050 resolution using the VESA driver. I can only have 1400 x something. bye, -- Dr. Ludovic Rousseau ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
