01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device 71c4 ^^^ That's the problem. When the CD was made, this video card likely did not exist, so it isn't in the CD's PCI database. That being said, this is really a WONTFIX because we are no longer offering the binary drivers on future releases, since doing so is actually a violation of the GPL. Sorry... =[ |
