Richard,
As you hopefully saw, since I posted it 30 minutes before you sent
this one, I've tried both. The problem I'm facing with fglrx right now
is that it disables the S-Video output and sends all X to the CRT
monitor. I'm looking for info on how to stop that from occurring.
Thanks for the clarification that I should be concentrating on the
fglrx driver.
