I tried forcing loading it: bash-5.0# modload pciverbose bash-5.0# modstat | grep verb pciverbose misc filesys - 0 225 pci scsiverbose misc builtin - 0 - - now it is in! But still: 001:05:0: ATI Technologies product 5955 (VGA display) Maybe this is the start of the issue, the card not being fully detected? I found googling that a linux dmesg says: 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955 is "5955" enough to say that I also have a 200M? That would be xonsistet with the 480. According to wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xpress_200 It would mean I have an R300 core (thus the firmware is correctly loaded)... Riccardo
