Hi,

my problem is the following:
I think I tried every hint and trick I found in these forums and on the net to get
the card working, but the only success I had up to now is that it works really crappy with the old 8.40.4 driver (which was the reason to try the other drivers)...
crappy meaning every game under wine works but with fps in a range from 1-10fps...
and linux games (war$ow...) getting a bit more: 20-30fps... also video is only working without lags in vlc, but not in mplayer (yet this might be a config-problem)...

My system is a 3400+ 64 on a asus k8v mobo with 1g ram...
kernel: 2.6.23-r9
dist: gentoo

I deactivated the pci-part in the kernel config yet my xorg.0.log still says it found a PCIE-Card regarding the Radeon...

I switched the DVI port and found that the 8.40.4 is only able to use one...
and the other driver versions did not work with any...

radeonhd did not work at all either...

what I realized just yesterday now is that amdccc says my AGP Bus was x0 and not x8?!
Bios-setting is x8 (Aperture 256mb (also changed that around))...

As I'm losing the overview what I already tried, I'll stop here and tell if I already tried something
