Ok folks I know everyone is busy but it's time to actually sit down and write a driver for the ATI Radeon card used in a lot of laptops. This has been a topic/bug in the forums since 2008 without being resolved and the work-arounds aren't working. The garbled display is really getting to be overwhelming and the symantic touchpad is not functional and this is been going on since Fedore 13 and Ubuntu 10. It seem Linux is turning into an Intel/Dell shop. I'm running on a Gateway netbook LT3101u CPU - AMD ATHLON 64 ATI Radeon graphic card. +++ I am a simple user -- I'm not a developer or programmer by any means or form. So please Help us out.++++ I think I will have to figure out which modules are required for my laptop and remove the unused modules from being loaded at boot. Also when I'm using Firefox and hit a website with active content puff the desktop and display become garbled lsmod Module Size Used by vfat 8720 1 fat 44848 1 vfat fuse 62289 3 sunrpc 195388 1 8021q 18723 0 garp 6087 1 8021q stp 1951 1 garp llc 4716 2 garp,stp ip6t_REJECT 4048 2 nf_conntrack_ipv6 7978 1 nf_defrag_ipv6 9531 1 nf_conntrack_ipv6 ip6table_filter 1695 1 ip6_tables 16850 1 ip6table_filter snd_hda_codec_realtek 325262 1 arc4 1457 2 ath9k 91484 0 snd_hda_intel 23694 2 snd_hda_codec 80822 2 snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_intel snd_hwdep 6368 1 snd_hda_codec snd_seq 52438 0 snd_seq_device 6001 1 snd_seq snd_pcm 78484 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec mac80211 234498 1 ath9k ath9k_common 2633 1 ath9k ath9k_hw 272393 2 ath9k,ath9k_common uvcvideo 54609 0 snd_timer 19593 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm ath 14564 2 ath9k,ath9k_hw cfg80211 135850 3 ath9k,mac80211,ath acerhdf 8945 0 microcode 18117 0 edac_core 40712 0 videodev 63426 1 uvcvideo snd 62686 12 snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hwdep,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm,snd_timer joydev 9635 0 v4l2_compat_ioctl32 6697 1 videodev edac_mce_amd 13274 0 serio_raw 4426 0 k8temp 3775 0 r8169 35525 0 wmi 9105 0 sp5100_tco 5333 0 soundcore 6299 1 snd rfkill 16552 1 cfg80211 snd_page_alloc 7431 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm shpchp 24582 0 mii 4318 1 r8169 i2c_piix4 10526 0 ipv6 282108 27 ip6t_REJECT,nf_conntrack_ipv6,nf_defrag_ipv6 ata_generic 3675 0 pata_acpi 3443 0 usb_storage 45615 1 uas 7783 0 pata_atiixp 4189 0 video 12432 0 radeon 688160 2 ttm 55120 1 radeon drm_kms_helper 27515 1 radeon drm 187984 4 radeon,ttm,drm_kms_helper i2c_algo_bit 5014 1 radeon i2c_core 25468 6 videodev,i2c_piix4,radeon,drm_kms_helper,drm,i2c_algo_bit -- ceco -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
