I run a Dell inspiron 8200 (laptop), which uses the Radeon 9000 (I don't think pro). 3D and 2D support is very good. FWIW, I can run Return To Castle Wolfenstein at 1600x1200 resolution with all the good high end graphics features turned on. It works very well. On the down side, what I've found: Going to suspend mode causes the screen to fill with horizontal lines, and it will never recover - reboot. Looks like there might be a fix out there: http://cpbotha.net/dri_resume.html and that this might be a problem with DRI in general? This was not a problem when I was using the VESA driver. Also, before closing the lid (which I have bios configured to not suspend, but keep running), I must VT switch to a text mode first, other wise a similar thing (above) will happen. Installation required a modification to the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file. Trimmed the H&V rates down by 10 each. This was likely to XF86 configure not detecting my display type properly. That's about it. Runs great! Nat On Thu, 2002-10-24 at 15:44, Dennis Nezic wrote: > How good is the support for this card in xfree86? ..
