The Xorg "ati" driver appears to me to be deficient, at least with the ATI Rage Mobility card. I am also unable to get more than 8 bits at 1024x480 on my Sony C1VFK Picturebook with Xorg under FC2, whereas I had 16 bits with this screen with XFree86 under FC1. If I use the same config file (calling it xorg.conf) that I used successfully with XFree86 with DefaultDepth 16, I get a shrinking black oval which becomes a blank white screen. But there is no error indicated in Xorg.0.log . According to this, all is well. In my view, that must be a bug in Xorg. However, I'm more than happy to pursue any suggestion you might have. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
