can we please add a FAQ or ATI-driver howto...we are receiving many many questions about this due to X 4.2.99.4. Thanks Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
I dont know anything about ATI - would it be possible for someone to write up a guide?
Created attachment 8100 [details] ATi mini howto that is part of the solution the other part is change a bit the ati-drivers ebuild (make sure that will use xfree-4.2.1*) and the xfree-4.2.99.4 one (make sure people don't use it with ati-drivers, nor complains about font problem if don't regen the XF86Config, I know isn't related to ati, but I got some question about that and may get annoying too)
I made the draft, now I ask for the doc-team help to publish/correct it
Could you please put this into Gentoo XML format? There is documentation on the website - thanks.
Ok, give me some time to update it as well
Created attachment 11052 [details] Second Draft Second Draft, there is something left, please someone take a look on what I have already done
I'll edit.
Document reviewed and committed to cvs. Awaiting release of xfree-4.3.0-r4 and some additional changes by the original author before linking it from the main docs index.
What is the status on this bug then? Can it be closed?
Luca, can this guide be linked from the main docs index or would you prefer to keep it on hold for now? Note that it is currently in cvs and can seen at: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/ati-faq.xml
seems ok just typo hunt a bit for stuff like : s/sugest/suggest and such
Corrected typos. Capitalized where required. Commited to cvs and ready to be linked. Any suggestions where to place it in the main docs index? Under System Configuration Documentation? Or Application Documentation? Or?
