(--) PCI:*(0...@1:0:0) ATI Technologies Inc RV670PRO [Radeon HD 3850] rev 0, Mem @ 0xd0000000/268435456, 0xfe8e0000/65536, I/O @ 0x0000b000/256, BIOS @ 0x????????/65536 I am running this right now... Though, it is PCI-E, not AGP... Works with both radeon and radeonhd drivers (current from ports). I expect the issue is with AGP, but you need to be setting Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" on your hardware as well. robert. -- Robert Noland <rnol...@freebsd.org> FreeBSD
