Still working fine under
FreeBSD pit.databus.com 4.8-STABLE FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE #0: Wed Apr  9 15:22:45 EDT 2003
But it is a 7500, not 7000.  I have had the ati driver work well with a
7000, but that was before dri/drm.  The card was moved to a <cough>
Linux machine, and recall that dri/drm worked there - it's currently in
pieces.  If there really seems to be a problem I could swap and
try stable or current with it.  We haven't heard back from the original
poster about whether the Eric Anholt patches worked.
