Hi, Thanks for your efforts with Ubuntu!
The Jaunty driver seems to work from the live CD. I played the ogv file from the Examples directory and also a wmv file (having installed a codec) and both played ok. I do get quite a bit of tearing but that's another issue. I will look into it a bit more and see if anything has been written or reported on it. I attach what I believe is the log file that you requested. (I'm not quite sure how the live CD stores stuff but this was the /var/log/Xorg.0.log that I found.) I also did the "aggressive recipe" for my existing 8.10 installation from the wiki page you referred to but after that I get an error message saying that my configuration can not be detected and my only option seems to be to end up in a "low graphics" mode. I tried searching a bit on the net but didn't find anything but recommendations to install the ati proprietary drivers... My display was correctly configured by the open source driver that came with 8.10 when I did a clean istall. I'm not sure if that was the same driver that I have installed following the "agressive recipe" though. Any pointer as to how I can get the open source driver to correctly configure my display (or how to do it manually)? Thanks!
