Gabriel, Not sure why the console corrupts with radeon, but here's some things to try with fglrx:
1) Make sure whenever you change drivers you quit X first. 2) Ensure libgl-dri is removed from your system, then install ati-fglrx-utils (these two packages conflict - libgl-dri is needed for xf86-video-ati but screws up fglrx) 3) in your /etc/rc.conf, specify your AGP modules in the MODULES array in this order: MODULES=( ... agpgart intel_agp fglrx) - where intel_agp is actually your board's AGP driver ( can be found with lsmod | grep agp ) - the agp modules must be loaded before fglrx. 4) Disable RENDER and DAMAGE extentions in xorg.conf - fglrx doesn't play nice with these afaik. Hope that works for you, Travis On Mon, 16 Oct 2006 11:14:28 +0200 Gabriel Linder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello all, > > I have a Turion64 laptop on which I run Arch32 and Arch64.
