Sorry, I'haven't any system for r300 (PCI/AGP) handy. Latest here HD 4650, RV730 AGP (1 GB !), r600 (see older bug reports...;-) But not booted for nearly 2 years... Maybe I have an older r300 one (yep, 9550), but I have to dig in the basement for it, if you need. > The progress I > made basically only works on my machine but above cosiekvfj seems to have no > issues despite having the same card. You made GREAT progress! We have to ping Michel Dänzer and Marek Olšák for your open questions.
