I'm trying to set-up my ATI Radeon 7500 (AGP) with Redhat 9.0 with little
success.
Any time I select a resolution above 640x480 (eg 1024x768) the monitor
gets driven at 31hz x 60hz, 640x480, and I get this stupid scrolling
"virtual-desktop" mode. I'm not sure if this is happening at the hardware
level (maybe the card itself is doing it) or if this is something X is
doing. The monitor I'm using is quite capable of resolutions greater than
1280x1024 (although I don't usually push it that far).
Has anybody had success using the 7500 with Xfree86? Please post your
XF86config!

Thanks.
