See this for details of updating openbsd 4.8-current for a HD 4250 (integrated graphics on a GA-880GA-UD3H Motherboard), using the current ATI 6.12.2 driver. http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-x11&m=128975076103964&w=2 or it is also possible to use the later ati 6.14.2 drivers, get the code from here: http://ftp.x.org/pub/individual/driver/xf86-video-ati-6.14.2.tar.gz extract the archive and follow the instructions in the previous e-mail link to build/install. I use this for a HD4250 and a Mobile HD5450 in my laptop. Regards Nigel Taylor
