Dear listmembers,
to whom it may concern: I use an AGP RX2600Pro card from MSI. When configuring
as described using
sax2 -r -0=fglrx
the string
Section "Device"
BoardName "RX2600Pro"
#BusID "1:5:0"
Driver "fglrx"
"BusID" causes trouble, the driver cannot start 3D acceleration. Messages like
(EE):
##########################################################
(II) Loading sub module "fglrxdrm"
(II) LoadModule: "fglrxdrm"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/linux//libfglrxdrm.so

The solution is _very_ simple: comment out the line
"BusID" and everything (besides the good old mutex-errors) seems fine, 3D is
functional.
Please check with the ATI developers what is going wrong here. I posted a
similar message into the ATI-driver feedback!
Take care
