2009-11-10 09:51:11 Tormod Volden description Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati I have Foxconn RC4107MA-RS2 which has ATI Radeon Xpress 200 In Jaunty I had to add the line {Option "BusType" "PCI"} to xorg.conf and then I got the desktop effects working. But in Karmic when I add the line then I get a blank screen and the monitor turns off. Without the line I can start but I don't have desktop effects/compositing. I checked the Xorg.0.log and I found out that this "(**) RADEON(0): Forced into PCIE mode" where as I had requested it to be forced into PCI mode. In Jaunty I get "(**) RADEON(0): Forced into PCI mode" Currently I have installed the xserver-xorg-video-radeon package from jaunty (version 1:6.12.1-0ubuntu2) in order to solve the problem temporarily Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati I have Foxconn RC4107MA-RS2 which has ATI Radeon Xpress 200 In Jaunty I had to add the line {Option "BusType" "PCI"} to xorg.conf and then I got the desktop effects working.

The code change also makes sure that if BusType is specified in xorg.conf, the right GART handling (PCI or PCIE) will be chosen.
