I've tried "radeon" without DRI but get blue blotches in Mozilla and
GAIM and some others where graphics shoudl be. Others have commented
they get the same.

I can use VESA but can't configure it to drive my big LCD, it doesn't
want to do the 19200x1600; I think the most it did was 1600x1200.  If
there's a way to do this I'm all ears.

Thanks.
