It's an ATI Radeon 7000. Every web page I've seen says this card is
supported.
The exact problems I'm experiencing were in an eariler post of mine,
from a few
days ago. There's no error messages. The most annoyinf problem is that
when I
re-installed X, I somehow overwrote some important configuration
files,but I've
not sure which ones or how to restore them. It is affecting my login
screen, it
looks like crap. Another unusual bug has to do with the fact that ever
since I
reinstalled X, I have a process known as kalarmd that is running the CPU
at max
(or close to maximum) load. Not sure what this process is for or why it
suddenly
decided it needed all those CPU cycles. 
As far as 3d acceleration, I tried installing DRI, it didn't work (I
kept getting segfault erros with glxgears). I went
through all the trouble shooting tips, none seem to work.


thanks,
sol
I'll have to try again when I get home tonight
