Problems with integrated Radeon xpress 200 (Asus pundit P1-PH1)

[Rasvari]

Hello,

I'm trying to setup an HTPC based on Asus Pundit P1-PH1 http://www.asus.com/products4.aspx?m...l1=1&l2=3&l3=0.

Everything is working perfectly but I have outstanding problems to make xorg7 to work. I'm using Fedora Core 5 with the latest kernel (kernel-2.6.16-1.2080_FC5) and fglrx driver (xorg-x11-drv-fglrx-8.23.7-4.lvn5) from Livna's RPM packages.

In fact, I can make X running only with vesa driver even xorg's radeon driver turns screen into mess.

With fglrx driver X server won't even start, it just crashes. Xorg.0.log leaves me confused.

...it crashed.

The fglrx module is loaded and /etc/init.d/ati-fglrx is running. Dmesg and other logs won't provide any hint's.

I'm using 17" CRT monitor connected to VGA port (DVI also available). Here is also snip from my xorg.conf.

Does somebody have any ideas what to do? Is there any known issues with intergrated adapters?

I apologize if I'm asking something which is well and widely known. Please give me links to the resources which I managed to miss...

Hello!
Your problem is similar to mine:

You could try an older driver - the most recent that worked for me was 8.19.10.
