Grant, |

I have some Pundit-R machines that may have a similar ATI chip. |
| 3 |
Mine is a 9100 IGP. What is in yours? |

|

On my Pundits I'm running xorg 7.0 and 8.27.10. I have S-Video |
| 6 |
working on one but not the other. I'm working on that as I write. |

|

If you think anything I have might be of use feel free to write me |
| 9 |
off-line. Like you I'm finding the ATI support in the Gentoo Wiki |
| 10 |
somewhat out of date for 7.0 and the newer drivers. Much of what used |
| 11 |
to work on these machines no longer works at all. Unfortunately I'm |
| 12 |
not qualified to get it working quickly so I'm in pain over here. |

Cheers, |
