Description Michal Suchanek 2006-12-01 05:22:01 UTC
I got a Radeon 9250 card, and because the vga connector is not accessible I
connected the monitor using the DVI to VGA convertor. The monitor is not
detected at all. I am using the ati driver from git and xserver-xorg   7.1.1ubuntu6.

Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys.  Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.
Comment 2 Alex Deucher 2007-08-31 08:00:01 UTC
Can you try again with ati git master?
Comment 3 Michal Suchanek 2007-09-18 03:19:14 UTC
With the current Debian xserver-xorg-video-ati packages (and a different monitor) the detection works (6.6.3-2, 6.6.193-3, 6.7.192-4).
