To avoid cluttering up the list, I've posted them on my webpage; see http://www.waltdnes.org/xorg.conf.txt http://www.waltdnes.org/Xorg.0.log.txt According to the box, the card is a PowerColor X300 SE, with PCI Express and full DirectX 9 support. One thing I notice is at the very end of xorg.conf... # Section "DRI" # Mode 0666 # EndSection According to "man radeon" Option "BusType" "string" Used to replace previous ForcePCIMode option. Should only be used when driver's bus detection is incorrect or you want to force a AGP card to PCI mode. Should NEVER force a PCI card to AGP bus. PCI -- PCI bus AGP -- AGP bus PCIE -- PCI Express (falls back to PCI at present) (used only when DRI is enabled) The default is auto detect. I uncommented the 3 lines and in the video card section I added... Option "BusType" "PCIE" but it looks like it's not enabled. -- Walter Dnes My musings on technology and security at http://tech_sec.blog.ca -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
