No problem on my FX301 (interesting to see how many FX-notebooks were released since one year) I suppose the ATI chipset is quite new and the support not quite perfect. I have an older chipset as I saw when I installed 9.0. > I've also tried substituting the ati.2 drivers from the GATOS site, > but > those give me exactly the same results...
