Trying to set up a new box 9.0-RELEASE w/ X; has ATI Radeon HD5500 card.
X.org -config says:
Missing output drivers. Configuration failed.
From X.org I see one is supposed to get linux drivers from ati/amd,
but this info is over 2 years old and
http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx
only allows choices of drivers for windoze.
Can anyone point me to a useable driver, or if these cards are
essentially unusable, make a suggestion for a reliable card suitable for
non-gaming (2-D) X work?
Should one use an Nvidia card with the Linux 295.53 driver?
Thanks,
Gary
