OS: mandrake linux 9.2


Evil xawtv with radeon 9600 on mandrake 9.2.. help!!

Hi all,

I'm a noob and really don't know where to look anymore.

Since a few days I have an 3Dconnect ATI Radeon 9600 pro and after installing de linux ati drivers my X does work. Everything works fine at first sight, xawtv in small mode works fine and even the game enemy territory does work. However when I put xawtv on full screen he gives up on me.

Xawtv says while starting up in an terminal that dga mode is not supported bij the X server, so I initialised dga and started the x again. When opening xawtv my monitor turned off and logging out or go to init 3 does not help to get my monitor on again..... only a reboot..... By the way I had tried several XF86 configs and nothing worked, the game does work whatever I do with the X server .....??!!

So here are some details about my machine and configuration and maybe someone knows what to do.
