Sorry, I thought that 'ati' was responsible for chosing between radeon and radeonhd. > Please remove the above Driver "radeon" in the config and send the > corresponding log. Attached. The 'RADEONHD' prefix is there. I also attached the 'radeon' log. > If the log confirms that radeonhd is loaded, please try the 1.2.4 > package from > http://people.debian.org/~bgoglin/rebuilds/radeonhd-1.2.4-Xserver1.4/ This version works fine. (other log attached) This module recompilation is really handy :) I'd be interested in documentation to do the same! Now, where should this bug go? In a default Lenny install, Xorg uses 'radeonhd' while, given the state of the drivers in Lenny, it would better use 'radeon'. Maybe this can be a candidate fix for Debian 5.0.1. -- Sylvain
