I've tried both radeon and fglrx. I'm not really sure which one to use. It seems that some Gentoo online docs say to use fglrx but I seem to get the better results with radeon. The fglrx driver doesn't output on the S-Video port for me. It's switching the monitor back on instead. There's probably settings I need to edit by hand. myth11 root # lsmod Module Size Used by fglrx 240380 0 agpgart 28968 1 fglrx myth11 root # [EMAIL PROTECTED] mark $ grep -i depth /var/log/Xorg.0.log (**) fglrx(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32 (II) fglrx(0): Pixel depth = 24 bits stored in 4 bytes (32 bpp pixmaps) (II) fglrx(0): Depth moves disabled by default (--) Depth 24 pixmap format is 32 bpp [EMAIL PROTECTED] mark $ myth11 root # lsmod Module Size Used by radeon 75776 0 drm 60820 1 radeon agpgart 28968 1 drm myth11 root # [EMAIL PROTECTED] mark $ grep -i depth /var/log/Xorg.0.log (**) RADEON(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32 (II) RADEON(0): Pixel depth = 24 bits stored in 4 bytes (32 bpp pixmaps) (II) RADEON(0): Depth moves disabled by default (--) Depth 24 pixmap format is 32 bpp [EMAIL PROTECTED] mark $ I'm wondering if the scan rate is supposed to be the VGA rate of 31Hz?
