I am the guy who has the problem with the Radeon 7500. If anyone has any suggestions, I will be happy to try them, (but note the crt_screen option suggested elsewhere did not help).

Rather confused, because there seems to have been a flurry of correspondence on this topic, but only 3 messages showed up on the Cooker list. Where can I find the rest of the correspondence?

Cheers,

Bruno Prior

Hi guys,

I have someone at mandrakeexpeert, paid incident, that has a problem with a
Radeon 7500, the card does not work (locks up) if he uses hardware acceleration,
switching of hardware acceleration with "Option NoAccell" will make the system
work, I adviced him to get the latest packages from cooker since I saw there
have been fixes for dri applied, but his problem still persists, however RedHat
8.0 will work just fine with hardware acceleration.

I now understand why I find it difficult to justify paying for support. And I'm obviously monitoring the correct mailing list for help, if I ever need it :-)

Oh and if I had the money I'd buy up Mandrake as their about the best commercial linux vendor out there, unlike some m$ wannabes wearing coloured hats :-)

Maybe you can check if there are more patches available or maybe remove some
that don't work.

The incident number is : 37844
So if you need more infos just stop by and ask.
