Hi ! Finally fixed the problem : accelerated X is running :-)
Here's the working "Device" Section : this may help people with older ati cards to get acceleration working (it is the trouble worth) The trick was to change the reference clock : look at http://www.xfree86.org/support.html, especially the "ATI Adapters README file" for your release Section "Device" Option "accel" "true" Option "crt_screen" "true" Option "hw_cursor" "true" Option "dpms" "true" Option "reference_clock" "29.5MHz" Option "shadow_fb" "false" Identifier "XClaim 3D Plus" Driver "ati" VendorName "ATI" BoardName "Mach64 LI" ChipSet "ati" # The following is from X -configure ChipId 0x4c49 ChipRev 0xdc BusID "PCI:0:14:0" EndSection Good luck, Simon -- Simon Vallet Institut National Agronomique Paris-Grignon [EMAIL PROTECTED]
