DVI support is non-standard on XPRESS chips. I'm trying to sort that out now, but I don't have the hardware. If you can test with the latest driver from xf86-video-ati git master, it may work.

We should be able to get this sorted out. as root: cd /sys/bus/pci/devices/<pci bus id of card> echo 1 > rom; cat rom > /tmp/vbios.rom; echo 0 > rom Thanks, Alex _______________________________________________ xorg-driver-ati mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati
