hello,

I've got a

- video card: Sapphire with chipset ATI Radeon 7500 64Mb DDR
- monitor: Sony 100ES
- Mandrake 9.0 with XFree86 4.2.1

My linux system detect the video card right but when testing the configuration the 
monitor goes blank.

I've tried to edit manually the XF86Config file and found out that 
- the monitor goes blank when Driver (at Section "Device") is "radeon" or "ati"
- X doesn't start and gives messages error when Driver (at Section "Device") is "vga"
- X starts but with slow performance when Driver (at Section "Device") is "vesa"

Can you suggest me a solution or show me an alternative resource to ask for help ?

thanks
Antonio Di Vaira
