I was gonna comment on this too, as I also have a Radeon 9000 Pro and I don't seem to recall having experienced what he is either. I will admit that the config file does only show Radeon 9000 but not Pro. If he doens't, I'll submit a bug against it with info just to help, although as mentioned it doesn't matter :) > That said, whenever possible, we like to have the proper name > display for a given card.
