Radeon X1300 problems

Well the latest ATI driver may not be the best choice, the one from Dag's site may be a bit of a problem also. You have not stated where you got the fgrlx driver or how you installed it. Please show the output from the typed command [b]fglrxinfo[/b] Also as a reference, here's a copy of my xorg.conf...

It looks like the rpmforge repo is disabled maybe, try [b]yum install 915resolution --enablerepo=rpmforge[/b]

If that does not work is the rpmforge-release package installed?? [b]rpm -qa rpmforge-release[/b]

Re: Help me to configure my NIC

I'm sorry my crystal ball is in the shop, I dropped last week so I have no idea which NIC you have :-D
