Re: XF86 3.1.1 Mach 64 Pro Turbo server



Well, it's quite simple actually.

I had a Grahpics XPression - and could never configure it to work with my X. 
apparently - ATI are updating their chips every 2 weeks or so - and not all 
revisions are quite working well. I know that I sent the ATI support all the 
story - and after a bit of yellings and harsh emails to the boss - I got a 
new board - that works fine both with XFree (although I ain't using it - but 
I just tried and saw it wokred) - and with the XInside I am mailnly using.

try to see if the Xinside helps u - if not - contact ATI.
