I'm assuming that the "you" in your post is me, as I was having lockup problems. I don't recall trying to install firegl drivers; the XF86Config file I posted at the start has been superceded. The file itself was either deleted or modified and saved as XF86Config-4. I removed (rpm -e) the Mesa drivers; what's there now was installed by the ATI rpm itself. Considering the number of things I needed to do to get things working, I'd reluctant to recompile the kernel. Perhaps I'll try it anyway, both the current stock version with the modules and a 2.6.1 version. But it took me so long to get sound on this machine (whine)... -Don
