11 Good news! Following from there to ATI's site, I found that my
12 Radeon chipset is supported by driver 8.28.8 (last updated 8/18/06).

14 The last time I tried updating the ATI driver, I ended with a b0rked
15 X.org. I managed to create a working xorg.conf which I shall save
16 before installing this driver. As they say, once bitten, twice shy.
