[Trsto]

Hello , I'm using Radeon 9800 pro ,on FC3
kernel 2.6.10-1.770_FC3
I've done everything as u sayd ... al worked ... when loading, says [OK] ,but still no more than 300fps , ...
done the " yum install compat-libstdc++ " thing ... nothing diffrent , any ideas ?
Does it all have to be done in some order ?

Ok nevermind I found the problem ... i had installed 3 kernels ... the really old one , 2.6.20 , and the really new one ... i guess that was the problem ... thax for this howto

Any idea when driver for 2.6.11 will be available?

My screen locks up like it has lost sync when I boot with card installed..

rpm -q fglrx returns "package fglrx is not installed" I assume that is the problem.

Hrm, I am not using ATI's drivers, only the Fedora Core drivers (of course, using FC4T2 + rawhide at this point), and this is what I get with an ATI Radeon 9000 Pro...

That FC4 has updated and working 3D acceleration for the ATI cards? I finally got acceleration enabled on my card after much hair pulling and gnashing of teeth only to discover that I lost the ability to use Monitor Spanning. I use it more than I do any game, so I reverted back to the original configuration. Here's hoping FC4 alleviates this problem.

Cheers
