Hi



I'm not sure, but i think that this could be an RS600 instead of an
RS690, and that therefor you will need to use the -ati driver. Will
verify with ATI.



Thanks.

However, the -ati driver does not seem to work for me at the moment
either. It does not detect my graphics card either. I still get the
following error in the log.

(EE) No devices detected.

Why don't you post the whole log? You may also want to try the -avivo
driver. I looked at the -radeonhd and the -ati driver sources, and both
of them don't seem to recognize the RS600 (which is the Xpress 1200 Series).

Does your Samsung laptop have an Intel chip in it perchance?

Try the attached patch (cheap hack) to the radeonhd driver, as some
website that I read (wikipedia article, mainly) expresses that the
RS600M might be very very similar to the RS690M, but just for Intel
chips (the 690 is for AMD chips only).

Here is the lspci output on the Samsung R20, there's nothing from Intel:
