Hello,
I have a radeon 9600xt and am wondering what I can do with it in
freebsd. I do not game and from browsing the list have seen that 3d
acceleration is not possible anyway. I am running freebsd 6.0 and have
an up to date port tree (As well as installed ports). The most important
thing right now is getting tv out (s-video) to work. I have searched the
lists and the forums and have not found any info on getting it to work
with ati. I came accross the firegl driver that has been ported to
freebsd, but it fails to install. Here is my xorg.conf:

Is this optimal?
Sorry if I am all over the place, I am just confused by the ati setup in
freebsd, but essentially what I want is maximum 2d performance and the
ability to play movies on my tv (s-video out).
Thank you very much,
Casimir Loeber
