     Sounds like the card isn't being detected from what you're  
saying. Can you give us relevant X outputs (+/-5 lines from the  
issue, ie warning or error) where it states these problems?
     Also, the device section for your card and the screen and layout  
sections from your xorg.conf file would be very helpful.
     Thanks,
-Garrett
