Ok, it was pointed out to me, that xorg-server-snap won't work with this driver, and I'm happy to report that it works rock solid with the xorg-server port. I even got TV out working without a fuzz, only thing missing is XV on the TV screen (somehow, there is no XV_SWITCHCRT attribute as with the radeon(4) driver). Anyway, THANK YOU for this Christmas present ;] You might wanna mentio the xorg-server-snap incaompatibility in the README and this is my hardware, which is now known to work: acpi_video0@pci1:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x20011028 chip=0x4e501002 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'ATI Technologies Inc' device = 'Mobility Radeon 9700 (M10 NP) (RV350)' class = display subclass = VGA Ulrich Spoerlein -- PGP Key ID: F0DB9F44 Encrypted mail welcome!
