The updated bios is at www.diamondmm.com. It's where I got it. It should be=
at
the bottom of the list of drivers.
upport -> drivers/firmware -> fire gl 1000 pro
htt=
p://www.diamondmm.com/products/drivers/firegl-1000pro.html>
If you have just the regular 1000 I think the only difference is that it has =
4MB
of memory and it is the oem version. I have the 1000 pro. Check the readme =
in=20
with the bios to confirm that it works with both cards.
Also you may want to check out the permedia section at 3dlabs they have links
to linux/X11 information for the chipset.

Drew,
Ok...That's the problem. I have a FireGL 1000 (Permedia) you have the
FireGL 1000 pro (Permedia 2). You're right there is a bios update for the
1000pro but there isn't one for the 1000. Thank you for your help though.
Regards,
Jason
