Hmm... Reading through, I did not find any very specific "it does not
work" cases. However, I see that many people found ATI cards as a PITA.

... the problem is that I have no spare hardware to test it thoroughly,
and my workstation works also as central monitoring point for our network
;-)

Maybe I'll try "ati*.o from 4.1" way...

Stangely enough, there is no info about ATI<->XFree86 4.2 at
http://www.xfree86.org/4.2.0/Status6.html

Anyway, thank you for the info.

Sincerely,
