Subject: [gentoo-amd64] More ATi driver madness
Date: Sat, 12 Aug 2006 11:01:38 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200608121101.38860.mhaney@ercbroadband.org> (raw)

Good news:  After two months of screwing with modular X and the ATI drivers, I 
FINALLY got an X session on my Compaq R4000.

Bad news: For some incredibly stupid reason, the session graphics are 
horrible.  When I log in, the desktop looks fine, but all my console sessions 
are transparent and impossible to read and every window I close hangs out on 
the desktop like a ghost.  I've used eselect to configure openGL for the ati 
interface, the module (latest driver) loads and i even get the correct info 
in 'fglrxinfo'.  Not to mention I get 1280x800 resolution.  But if this 
graphics problem can't be fixed, it's impossible to use that way.

Does anyone have any possible clue what I can do to fix that?
