Are you using DRM?
Sorry Marcelo, dain bramage on my part. I meant 2.4.22-pre. I think it
was -pre3 that upgraded drivers/video/radeonfb.c from version 0.1.4 to
version 0.1.8-ben
I guess the newer 0.1.8 is needed to support Radeon 9600's. I'm curious
as to whether other people have the same massive screen corruption
problems returning from X as I do. If not, probably best to keep the
new driver. (Maybe I should go out and buy myself a new Radeon. :-) I
have been using ATI's private DRI/DRM kernel module driver (fglrx) in
concert with XFree 4.2.0 for quite some time.
