I assume that you're connecting your monitor to the standard VGA output.
This is a known bug/misfeature. Either get the CVS version of X, which fixes
it, or, use the DVI-VGA adapter (which should have shipped with the card) to
connect your monitor to the DVI output. This way, everything should work
(I've only tested it under Linux)

Subject: [Newbie]FreeBSD 4.4 + XFree86 4.1.0 + Radeon VE = Blank Screen =[
Hi everyone,
I have the latest version of FreeBSD, a fresh port of XFree86, a radeon
ve graphics card in an
agp slot and a KDS Vs-7i monitor. I've configured a test XFree86
configuration with some of the following lines
Section "Device"
Identifier "Radeonve"
Driver "radeon ve"
VendorName "ATI"
BoardName "Radeon VE"
Option "AGPMode" "4"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
i have a agpgart file in my /dev directory. I found some patches for some
radeon_*.c files but
my versions were already beyond the patches. My monitor is configured for a
defaultcolordepth of 24
and im using modes "800x600" . When I try to run XFree86 -xf86config
XF86myconfig
my screen goes blank as if the video signal was cut off.
I have two questions. 1. Does anyone actually know a way to make this
work.
2. What do the numbers in the BusID field
mean?
Thankyou in advance
Paul
