What modules are loaded? I just set up a Radeon 9200 for MythTV using
the SVideo out. It was a bit difficult. This is for my Pundit-R with
all video going to the SVideo output. (I.e. - no monitor support)

1) emerge ati-drivers
2) emerge hexedit
3) hand edit one byte in fxlrx
4) Build your kernel with /dev/agpgart and your chipset support as
modular. Turn off DRM support in the kernel.
5) Reboot with the new kernel
6) in xorg.conf choose:   Option "MonitorLayout"              "STV, NONE"
7) modprobe fglrx
8) Enjoy.

Hopefully this will get you a bit closer.

Good luck,
Mark
