From your xfree 85 log I can see that your on 4.2.1.1, so you need to uipgrade to xfree86 4.3.0 or above for Radeon 9000 support.

Re: [XFree86] Is this working?
It might be one of the Unsupported Chipsets in 4.2.0 / .1, have you tried the older 3.3.6 Server ?

Support (accelerated) for the ViRGE, ViRGE/VX, ViRGE/DX, ViRGE/GX, ViRGE/GX2, ViRGE/MX, ViRGE/MX+ is provided by the XF86_S3V server. Support (accelerated) for the ViRGE chipsets, as well as the Trio3D and Trio3D/2X, is provided by the XF86_SVGA server with the s3v driver. Support (accelerated) for the Savage3D, Savage3D/MV, Savage4, and Savage2000, is provided by the XF86_SVGA server with the s3_savage driver on some OSes (Linux, *BSD). 4.2.1: Support (accelerated) for the 964 (revisions 0 and 1), 968, Trio32, Trio64, Trio64, Trio64V+, Trio64UV+, Aurora64V+, Trio64V2, and PLATO/PX is provided by the "s3" driver (however, only models using the IBM RGB 524, Texas Instruments 3025, or an internal TrioDAC RAMDAC chip are supported).

[XFree86] 4.3.0 release date ? AND a Font problem too
Does anyone know if there's a proposed release date for 4.3.0 ? I'm currently using 4.2.99.4, but it stops KDM working (on My SUSe 8.0) and I don't think those nice people @ SUSe are Compiling versions of X unless its a Major release. Alos, after installing 4.2.99.3/4 some of my fonts seemt om be a bit messed up, Arial, Times New Roman are a couple. When you type lowecase abcdefghijklm it comes out as ABCDEFGHIJKLM and when uppercase characters it comes out as symbols A becomes ! Very odd, not all fonts are affected! ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
[XFree86] KDM No longer works after upgrade to 4.2.99.3 / .4
Hi I've just installed xf86 4.2.99.4 so I can have My Radeon 9000 working modes other than the VESA ones, and after installing xf86 (..binaries using Xinstall..) and now kdm no longer works (kde 3.05a) ... xdm works, so at least I can use X, and it uses kde as the desktop... I'm just stumped why kdm doesn't work. If I run kdm as root, it just returns to the bash prompt... no errors :( Any ideas ?

Re: [XFree86] HELP: StartX failure
Your Motherboard has the Intel 845 chipset, and XF86 (4.2.0) is identifying it as Intel 815, and is failing to find a device... I guess the 845 is not supported in such an old version of XF86...
