Certainly does. It seems to get asked once every couple of days. Thankfully, Michael D�nzer answered it for me some time ago - and I've been trying to point others with the same problem in the direction of this patch. > There's a patch available but it's very rough.

(Radeon 9000 is R250). > Wait for 4.3.1 , I'd say... That's probably the best advice for people not prepared to apply patches and rebuild ... but if you don't mind that sort of thing I'd say give it a try - that way any bugs will be got out sooner for everyone else! > If you feel adventurous, here's the patch. Er, why not lessen the load on the list (especially for people with slow connections) and just link to it? That way, if it gets updated, no need to repost, either. [ADV] New! Solve all your Radeon digital monitor problems by applying one simple patch! Too good to be true?
