Hi, Mark, I just installed a snv_75 from scratch, and add
Option "BusType" "PCI" to ATI device section of xorg.conf. And then, I installed compzi via Erwann's compiz bundle. It works. If you cannot set up compiz on F3400, can you send me xorg.conf, /var/log/Xorg.0.log, /var/dt/Xerror if exists. -minskey Mark R. Bowyer ??: > Hi Angelo =O) > > Thanks for answering.
