Dear XFree86-Experts,

Recently, I installed SuSE Linux 8.1 on my Dell Inspiron 5150 Laptop which is equipped with a ATI Radeon 9000 Mobility. Unfortunately, in SaX2 I was not able to select my
graphics card. In another forum I was advised to install the new XFree86-4.3.0
which is supposed to contain a driver for the Radeon 9000. After I installed
everything my graphics card was still not in the list. So I selected the Radeon 8500. At least, I could increase my screen resolution now to 1600x1200. However, once I try to activate the 3D-acceleration I'm told that my board doesn't support this. I already toyed around with glxgears but I don't know what I'm supposed to see and which frame rate I can expect. I have a P4 with 3.06GHz. In addition, after installing the new XFree86 my mouse doesn't work sometimes. I have connected an extern Logitech wheel mouse. There are three cases: (1) touchpad and mouse work correctly, (2) only the touchpad works or (3) both do not work at all.


Thank you very much in advance for any hints,

Best Regards,
Steffen Oeltze
