Hmm, that's news to me. I never knew you could get 3D support from an ATI board in Linux. That gives me something to play around with. :) In the meantime, if all you really need is a workstation (and you don't need to play games), just use the generic ATI drivers that come with XF86. They've been working fine for me on my Inspiron 8000 for about a year now. I'll try these new 3D drivers, but as I've never used them before I can't tell you how to get them working right now. Give me a couple of days though and I should be all set. :) -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY! Encrypted mail preferred.
