I tried both of these ideas, separately and together. Seem to be getting |
| 21 |
closer. Instead of a blank screen I get random coloured vertical bars on |
| 22 |
parts of the screen. Still get this: |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
(II) RADEON(0): Primary: |
| 25 |
Monitor -- TMDS |
| 26 |
Connector -- DVI-D |
| 27 |
DAC Type -- TVDAC/ExtDAC |
| 28 |
TMDS Type -- Internal |
| 29 |
DDC Type -- VGA_DDC |
| 30 |
(II) RADEON(0): Secondary: |
| 31 |
Monitor -- CRT |
| 32 |
Connector -- VGA |
| 33 |
DAC Type -- Primary |
| 34 |
TMDS Type -- External |
| 35 |
DDC Type -- DVI_DDC |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Should note here, there is no VGA connector on the card. There is a DVI |
| 38 |
connector (the one I am using) and the one that looks like DVI, but bigger, |
| 39 |
ADC I think? |

Still no joy. Sorry for taking so long to get back to the list, I had to go |
| 45 |
out... |
