ATI Linux drivers 8.29.6

Heh, even more irrelevant now I'm using Gentoo/FreeBSD :P

At least they finally made the lack of R200 support official now. But seriously - what is ATI doing? The only improvement is 2.6.18 kernel support? Meeeeh.

Just interested but why would using Gentoo/FreeBSD make new ATI drivers irrelevant?

ATI don't support FreeBSD - the only *NIX type stuff they do is Linux

Hi guys,
Is here someone with 2 Radeon installed on his system?

I have tried some xorg.conf but system stuck in black screen, vga fan rise and keyboard is not enabled ...can only hard reboot,
when 2 X850XT are installed on ASUS A8R32-MVP Del. in the CrossFire PCI slots and want to use the fglrx module driver!
X start with radeon xorg's module( without DRI ).

I know CrossFire tecnology is only available with Windows at the moment, but I want to run X with this hw configuration, so that multi-seat are available with DRI, or at least with one display.

If one vga is removed fglrx work fine.

In order to conifgure multi-seat I have builted-in xinerama support ,
then I have to configure it and test with a single device,
but can't install and uninstall a vga card in fashion with O.S. that I want launch( I want to play FlightSimulator X with XFire ).

I hope somebody can test other CrossFire system and solve this problem or link me to report the same bug to ATI bugzilla.

I'm using the latest ati-driver and stable xorg-x11
