I can give a quick radeon 9.1 report....On Sun, 12 Jan 2003, George Mitchell wrote:Well I have a Radeon 7000 that works with neither 8.2 or 9.0 unless accelleration is somehow disabled. It works flawlessly with Red Hat 8.0 though. There is simply some problem lurking in Mandrake that trashes these early Radeon cards. I originally suspected it was in the glx libraries but I have lately been hearing that it was a kernel 'drm' module. All I really know is that it fails badly, even when accelleration is not in use.Are you planning on testing 9.1 beta on it? I don't have too much time available, and would appreciate it if someone took this up and ensured that at least there are valid bugzilla entries for cards that failed on 8.2 and 9.0 before we hit RCs, then I can spend time doing other stuff (packaging etc).
I have a All-In-Wonder Radeon 8500DV attached to a Dell 2000FP flat panel. It all installs fine however the configuration has a specification for a 1600x1200 display but when X comes up I only get a 1280x1024.
The display comes up clear where on 8.2 and 9.0 I get a lot of video noise. ( I'm using ATI's driver under 9.0 and I get 1600x1200 cleanly ). Not a gamer I ran glxgears and it ran at 200fps.
I'd like to see my full 1600x1200 get used with my flatpanel...
