Hi, I am also using ATI 9250 Series card from ASUS. It is and AGP card. I just did a fresh install of gutsy. To get started with install i used safe vesa mode drivers to install from bootable cd.
Then i installed the latest radeon drivers. but when i try to enable radeon from gnome "screens & Graphics" control panel, i am now left stuck in 800x600 resolution and it automatically reverts to vesa driver. I am now going to use Emanuele's xorg.conf file device settings and see if i get any luck. Also change the AGP aperature size in bios to 512 which is Currently 256. Other then that i have nothing installed so maybe i need to be pointed to some tutorial to get dependency packs. After fresh gutsy install no updates installed even when software updates informs there are updates. I manually installed latest radeon drivers from the link given above, its version is 6.7.196. I installed these 2 packages. 1. xserver-xorg-video-ati-dbg_6.7.196+git2071112-0ubuntu0tv_i386.deb 2. xserver-xorg-video-ati_6.7.196+git2071112-0ubuntu0tv_i386.deb -- Radeon 9250 DRI locks up while using acceleration https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/138415 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
