I had a similar experience when I got my shiny new Asus X800 XT.. ATI's official drivers (proprietary) do not yet support their PCIE products; neither does XFree86 (as far as I was able to tell). My solution was to install x.org from source; this may work for you as well (no 3d support, but 2d works quite well). You can find a reasonable description of how to do this non-intrusively (into /usr/local) at this site: http://incubator.vislab.usyd.edu.au/roller/page/Steve?catname=Debian There are some comments below (myself and others) on how to integrate it with Debian (ie. make things like gdm/startx work seamlessly). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
