That's what I was coming to think - the one thing that had me stopped was
what it *was*. Do I understand you to be saying that this is a Radeon HD
2xxx (and why *three* names, two from ATI?)?

Also, it appears that you're saying I need to downgrade his X (all of
it?), and remove the kmod-fglrx, and install the legacy (is that the
kmod-fglrx93?

Thanks for the quick response - I really need to get his video up....
