In 8.2 DRI for the Rage Mobility is disabled. You will not be able to play Chromium or any other app that needs 3d hardware accell. If DRI is enabled for the Rage mobility your system will be subject to random lockups and video distortions especially if switching back and forth between X and a VC. This problem is related to the Gatos ati2 drivers which are now included in the kernel. The Mobility was the only card of the Rage series that was adversely affected. Charles Charles
