By flaky, I mean no video output at all when logging off my xdm session. CTL-ALT-DEL is the only path I have found from there to a fsck-free reboot... Still, I decided to go backwards to version 1.92 of the driver (x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati of course), which didn't turn off my video output. I was able to install it just now, thanks to reading diffs at http://www.freshsource.org/. Thanks, -- Albert Vest, al vest at earth link dot net
