  I have a zenith chaintech motherboard and a radeon 9600 pro, same
fbsd/X version, and indeed, it works, thanks a lot! I can finally use my
two screens again!

  I played with xrandr, glxgears and some 3d apps (blender for instance)
and it seems to work perfectly. Will this patch be commited to the main
tree ?

  Also, I'm curious, what was the problem in the first place ? I must
say I have no clue what this patch is doing (excepted it doesn't seem
too nasty :).

Thanks again,
