Either the ATI driver is different in FC5, or, I didn't succeed in getting it running - In FC4, the driver would be loaded in the boot sequence and you would see the probe for the module - this I'm not seeing. Once up, the installed ATI configuration utility refuses to run - I get the bouncing cursor for a few moments, and then nothing. I ran /usr/sbin/ati-fglrx-config-display enable to see if that would change anything - it said it had succeeded and suggested a reboot or an X restart - I rebooted, but the behavior was the same. How do I tell if it's running? -- Claude Jones Bluemont, VA, USA
