I have visited the SuSE support database and searched through the past few months of e-mail but have not had any luck. When I run SaX2, it fails to detect the Radeon card and aborts. So far the only way I have been able to get SaX and Xwindows to work is with sax2 -m 0=fbdev but I have zero success with the ATI module. I am using SuSE 8.0 so I thought I would try to update XFree86 so I visited ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/X/XFree86/XFree86-4.3.0-SuSE/suse80 The update seemed to be successful but still SaX2 won't detect the card. I have seen a lot of posts on related problems and I have tried to use information where possible to fix my problem but no luck. Some posts mentioned that I didn't need the ATI driver because XFree86 4.3 supports the Radeon but either with or without it doesn't work for me. Here are some pieces of /var/log/SaX.log. Any ideas besides waiting for SuSE 9.0? :-) Damon Register =========================================================== SaX2 log: SaX2 version 4.3 - CVS Release: 1.30 2002/02/28
