Reading through, I did not find any very specific "it does not work" cases. However, I see that many people found ATI cards as a PITA. ... the problem is that I have no spare hardware to test it thoroughly, and my workstation works also as central monitoring point for our network ;-) Maybe I'll try "ati*.o from 4.1" way... Stangely enough, there is no info about ATI<->XFree86 4.2 at http://www.xfree86.org/4.2.0/Status6.html Anyway, thank you for the info.
