Just to confirm this, I have three systems with ATI Radeon 7000 64MB
AGP. Two of them sit on an ASUS P4S800D-E and I was having
the same problem mentioned above. Commenting out the dri command
in xorg.conf solved it. The other system though, is an Athlon64 on a K8V
board, and there X works fine (i.e. I don't need comment out the Load "dri"
command.
This one is on a ASRock K7S41GX motherboard with a SiS 741GX chipset.
http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=707 is the bug report I
have added to it. Add more useful data to it if you have it. I would
love to see this fixed.
