Hello folks!
I have got an HIS ATI Radeon 8500 OEM card, which is not manufactured by ATI but by
"Hightech Information Systems" (http://www.hightech.com.hk/html/index.html). Xfree
does not detect my card at all. I think this is because my OEM card has a different
device id than an "original" ATI Radeon 8500 card which is manufactured by ATI
themselves (my device id is: 0x514c, as you can see in the XFree output file at the
bottom of this mail).
I have already tried a different XFree driver (http://gatos.sourceforge.net/)but it
does not seem to detect my graphics card, too.
1. Is there any alternative XFree driver which supports my HIS ATI Radeon 8500 OEM
card?
2. Is it possible just to modify the "device id recognition" in the original XFree
driver in order to make it determine my chipset properly?
(because I think my OEM card is in principle the same as the "original" ATI Radeon
8500 card, it's just the device id that is different)
Thanks in advance
Martin M.
Here is my XF86Config file and the XFree output file:
