Hello Jiang,

The page http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/ATIRadeon suggests it should=20
work, the manpage of the radeon driver suggest it won't work:

       RV350       Radeon 9600PRO/9600SE/9600, M10/M11, FireGL T2 (2D=20

Any hints?

=46or now I will use fglrx, but if I can have 3D acceleration with an=20
opensource driver I am all for it.
