Greetings, Have redhat 9 installed (I bought a RHN subscription, eh). I have an ATI Radeon 7500 video card, and a Viewsonic VP201m LCD monitor which runs at 1600x1200. While it runs, the output is flaky (I get flashes, some web pages look bad, I get grainy little lines drawn on my screen). Something is clearly wrong. I am using the updated redhat stock kernel. Yes, the radeon modules is running. Attached is my /etc/X11/XF86Config Anyone else had this kind of problem???
