OK, after som head_against_wall incidentes, I have it working on Debian Etch. This should work for the Radeon 7500 too, because they use the same driver.
First, make sure you have these packages installed: xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-video-ati xlibmesa-gl xlibmesa-dri xfonts-base libxinerama1 I'm not sure if they're all strictly neccessary, but it won't hurt to have them. Anything else you need will probably be installed automatically along the way. Then, adapt your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to look something like this: Section "Files" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi" # path to defoma fonts FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType" EndSection Section "Module" Load "bitmap" Load "ddc" Load "dri" Load "extmod" Load "freetype" Load "glx" Load "int10" Load "vbe" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "kbd" Option "CoreKeyboard" Option "XkbRules" "xorg" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "gb" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "CorePointer" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Card1" Driver "radeon" BusID "PCI:1:0:0" Option "MergedFB" "true" Option "CRT2Position" "LeftOf" Option "MonitorLayout" "LCD, CRT" Option "CRT2Hsync" "31-83" Option "CRT2VRefresh" "50-75" Option "OverlayOnCRTC2" "true" Option "MetaModes" "1280x1024-1280x1024" Option "MergedXineramaCRT2IsScreen0" "true" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "DELL1" Option "DPMS" HorizSync 31-83 VertRefresh 56-76 EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen1" Device "Card1" Monitor "DELL1" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" Virtual 2560 1024 EndSubSection EndSection Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default Layout" Screen "Screen1" InputDevice "Generic Keyboard" InputDevice "Configured Mouse" EndSection Section "DRI" Mode 0666 EndSection -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
