I thought I would do the same, except after switching to an amd64 |
| 19 |
machine any attempt to use my Radeon 9200 SE causes a hard lock up as |
| 20 |
soon as I type 'startx'. No ssh'ing in from another box, no ctl-alt-bs, |
| 21 |
the only way out is a hard reset. For now I'm using 2 GeForces, but I |
| 22 |
would rather switch to the ATI. Did yours just work 'out of the box'? |
