I do not game and from browsing the list have seen that 3d acceleration is not possible anyway. I am running freebsd 6.0 and have an up to date port tree (As well as installed ports). The most important thing right now is getting tv out (s-video) to work. I have searched the lists and the forums and have not found any info on getting it to work with ati. I came accross the firegl driver that has been ported to freebsd, but it fails to install.

Sorry if I am all over the place, I am just confused by the ati setup in freebsd, but essentially what I want is maximum 2d performance and the ability to play movies on my tv (s-video out). Thank you very much, Casimir Loeber
