The output here is: > > 0000000000e940 D ATIMemoryTypeNames_88800CX Well - seems to be defined there.... hmmm. not sure why you are getting 'undefined symbol' in atimisc_drv.so in that case. I am wondering if the problem is tied up with amd64 specifically - hopefully someone else will have some ideas :-). In the meantime you could hack your xorg.conf to use 'vesa' driver and see if you can actually startup X - try adding modeline settings in there for your monitor if you still get 'out of range' (tho I must say I've *never* needed to put them in with Xorg...). Also worth trying might be borrowing a DVI cable (assuming your monitor has a DVI input) and seeing if X works with it connected instead of the VGA one. Cheers Mark
