Hello Paul,
I now tried your device entry with just the same X.org version:
martin@shambala:~> X -version
=2D----------------------------------------------------------------------
X Window System Version 7.1.1
Release Date: 12 May 2006
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.1.1
Build Operating System: UNKNOWN
Current Operating System: Linux shambala 2.6.19.1-ck2-tp42-sws2-2.2.9 #1=20
PREEMPT Fri Dec 15 19:06:34 CET 2006 i686
=2D----------------------------------------------------------------------
No luck. I still get
=2D----------------------------------------------------------------------
(II) RADEON(0): Direct rendering enabled
(**) RADEON(0): Setting up final surfaces
(**) RADEON(0): Initializing Acceleration
(II) RADEON(0): Render acceleration unsupported on Radeon 9500/9700 and=20
newer.
(II) RADEON(0): Render acceleration disabled
=2D----------------------------------------------------------------------
Radeon DRM module is loaded:
=2D----------------------------------------------------------------------
shambala:~> lsmod | grep radeon
radeon 126240 2
drm 75732 3 radeon
=2D----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my card:
=2D----------------------------------------------------------------------
shambala:~> lspci -nn | grep ATI
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RV350=20
[Mobility Radeon 9600 M10] [1002:4e50]
=2D----------------------------------------------------------------------
I have not a trace of an idea on where to look. Below is my complete=20
xorg.conf, I added your device section as diffferent device section and=20
just changed ServerLayout to use it. It is used as I see the options from=20
it in the Xorg.0.log. Well I attach this one too (hopefully the list=20
manager lets me - it does not seem so, reposting without the xorg log).
Maybe something wrong with my modules list in the config file? Maybe it=20
would be a good idea of you just send me your complete X.org conf file=20
and I try it with that one to make sure we have identical X.org setup.=20
When it then does not work, you gotta have a different version of the=20
radeon driver or a different gfx chip in your notebook I think. My radeon=20
driver is as stated previously:

martin@shambala:~> LANG=3DC apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-ati

Version of the dri drivers are:

If you have a newer driver I even would try to copy over the so files and=20
they if that works then ;-)
I really would like to use the opensource driver. Dreaming of the days=20
where X.org gfx drivers will be free and work out of the box with all=20
bells and whistles.
