Hi, please apologize that I hijack the thread but it seems that I have the same problem as Piotr.
The output of lspci is the same as described by Piotr. So I think that we have the same cards. >>>>> "Duncan" == Duncan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Support for the RV300 series is /very/ new and still somewhat > experimental.

I don't think that the RV300 cards are too new. I bought it end of last year and it worked very well with the xorg-6.8 radeon server. It doesn't work after the latest system update (which switched to xorg-7.0.0.). I suppose that I did not install X11 completely. I renamed /etc/X11 to /etc/X11-backup and re-emerged xorg-x11 in the hope I get a new /etc/X11 directory. But this did not happen. /etc/X11 contains a lot of files and I assume that many things had been changed there. I followed the instructions given in http://gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/x/x11/modular-x-howto.xml but I'm not sure that everything I did was correct. Here is my xorg.conf with all comments removed. Piotr, does it work for you? It's what I used with xorg-6.8. If it's more convenient for you to download the file instead of extracting it from this mail, download: http://ms25.ath.cx/xorg.conf This file contains all comments. __________________________________________________________________ Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Main Layout" Screen 0 "Screen 0" 0 0 InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "Files" FontPath "/usr/local/share/fonts/75dpi/" FontPath "/usr/local/share/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/local/share/fonts/100dpi/" FontPath "/usr/local/share/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/misc/" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/urwvn-fonts/" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/Type1/" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/TTF/" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/75dpi/" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/100dpi/" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/intlfonts/" FontPath "/usr/local/share/fonts/lm/" EndSection Section "Module" Load "dbe" SubSection "extmod" Option "omit xfree86-dga" EndSubSection Load "type1" Load "freetype" EndSection Section "ServerFlags" Option "blank time" "30" # 10 minutes Option "standby time" "20" Option "suspend time" "30" Option "off time" "60" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard1" Driver "kbd" Option "AutoRepeat" "0 0" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "de" Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "PS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" HorizSync 30.0 - 121.0 # Warning: This may fry old Monitors VertRefresh 50.0 - 150.0 # Very conservative.
