Sorry I am just starting to look at this stream. You seem to speak of a
RADEON some messages back
but you are looking at a 3.3.6 config file! I cannot believe that you are
attempting to use 3.3.6
for a RADEON. You probably have a /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 which is what you
should be looking at if
you are running X 4.x.x (which IS what you should be running -probably even
4.2...)
