Description Orion Poplawski 2005-12-06 23:10:47 UTC 
Description of problem:
Just did a rawhide install.  I have the following video card:

1:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M
5955 (PCIE) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
        Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company: Unknown device 3085
        Flags: bus master, fast Back2Back, 66Mhz, medium devsel, latency 66, IRQ 10
        Memory at c0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
        I/O ports at 9000 [size=256]
        Memory at b0100000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
        [virtual] Expansion ROM at b0120000 [disabled] [size=128K]
        Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2

Which is supported by the Xorg ATI driver, but the xorg.conf file written used
the vesa driver. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pyxf86config-0.3.22-1
Comment 1 Brad Hards 2006-02-11 09:58:57 UTC 
I just tried a FC5 test 2 install, similar video card: 
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RC410 [Radeon Xpress 
200] 
 
Still does the vesa thing. 
 
I tried the ati and radeon drivers - neither seems compatible. So maybe vesa 
is the only appropriate choice.
Comment 2 Adam Jackson 2006-09-20 21:39:13 UTC 
This should be working in FC6 test3 and later.  Please test with the new
release, and reopen this bug if it's still an issue for you.
