Subject: [SM] Radeon Firmware Help?

Hey Listers, I'm about to pickup a VisionTEK/Radeon PCI dual Monitor card
for my Umax anyone know
about these, here's a link ...

http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0177433


Hey Listers, and ...Jeff W, Dan, Leon, and Will S, I got it done!  The
VisionTek card has been "burned"  and is being used in my S900 as I write,
the task wasn't tricky at all
Looking back at it.  Will I think the files you sent may have been corrupt
in "transit" I
Came to this conclusion, after doing a "Google" on the "No ASIC is defined
in Flashrom.rom" error.  The google link took me back to the
"MacLife/Falkemedia Forum where someone got the same error and noticed that
he too opted for "another set of files" I decided to use your smaller "rom"
file with the files Leon suggested and that did it. 

What's interesting though when I gave the FLASHROM -I command, the "romsize
ID is listed as  "0x2000" which indicates the larger chip ... but being not
5K, nor 10K I think its "6K" I still decided to use the smaller ROM file for
the deed.  IT TOOK! I immediately shut down the PC, pulled the card and
installed in the same slot as my Sapphire, I powered up from the front panel
(I now have to do this because I use a USB keyboard, presently) and no
Xpostfacto ... it was recognized immediately by Panther and I'm using it
now.

All of this was an experiment, glad to say worked without a hitch "really"
I probably didn't have to go through all this for an extra card, BUT WHAT
THE HECK!

Thanks for everyones help, as always this is a great forum, oh hope
everyones having a
Great and safe Labor Day weekend!  

Regards, Phillip
