im running an amd 762 based mobo with a radeon vivo and experience the same problem
i tried checking out the cvs sources but could never get it to run properly. im assuming the current cvs build has issues back to the ati problem from what i can tell there are 3 files that need to be patched in the source distro before it will run properly on a radeon im in the process of unzipping the 4.1.0 source as we speak so bare with me. im going to try to patch things up and if im successful i will give you what information i have at hand Casey on a side note if you edit your xfree options and add in option "noaccel" and option "swcursor" then it will work, it will just be dog slow > Hi all > > Am new to the list, so please forgive me if I rant. > > To put you in the picture, I have a new box ...
