When you are given the choice to pick a driver, the ati driver is not shown. I can't reliably use xf86cfg in graphics mode on my monitor (Samsung 17" TFT LCD 760V). This bug is a near blocker to setting up X; if I didn't know how to set up an XF86Config file by hand (having used it for years), I'd be up the proverbial creek. >How-To-Repeat: Run xf86cfg -textmode; try to configure an ATI card. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
