>This HOWTO is for anyone who owns an ATI Radeon 8xxx graphics card and wants it to
|
|
function in a certain way or, in general, properly with XFree86, the X Window System.
|
|
It describes the procedure of making XFree 4.x run on an ATI R200
|
|
(Radeon 8xxx series). There are several ways of doing this, with various
|
|
results (further described below). If you know of any other ways (maybe
|
|
better as well) of achieving the goal of this document, please let me know.</P
