I try 6.11.0, that is same.( xorg.conf is same upper you can see ) 3) google earth very very very slowly, I can't use it. PS: I build source code driver use "checkinstall" to help me packet .deb file, and use dpkg -i to install this packet. Best regards.

(In reply to comment #1) > please attach your xorg log. > attach files are xorg log unfortunately I don't save ubuntu 8.10 and other old log files. I attach two files for you. Xorg.0.log.ubuntu.8.04.radeon.6.8.0 ----> Ubuntu 8.04 build-in xserver-xorg-video-ati 6.8.0 Xorg.0.log.ubuntu.8.04.radeon.6.11.0 ----> Ubuntu 8.04 use xf86-video-ati 6.11.0 the xorg.conf setting are same. I use some Option only for 6.10.0 later, so in the 6.8.0 will got error message. Best regards
In the future, please attach the logs directly rather than zipping them up. First remove all of the options in the device section of your config and reboot. Does that fix the problem? If not, does setting the AGPMode to 4 help? Option "AGPMode" "4"
Created attachment 23307 [details] [review] Xorg.0.log Enable AGP8x,EXA,EXAVsync,DRI form ubuntu 8.04 Thank your reply first. I try remove all options and restart gdm, it is work! But I think here is some thing wrong in option. so, I try option parameter one by one. I enable EXA, AGP8x, EXAVsync last, when I use Option "DRI" "on" , mplayer let the system crash. I attach xorg log file for you. and I try google earth, that is very very very slow can't used. Best regards.
DRI should be on by default. Please try with only: Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" if that doesn't work, try adding: Option "AGPMode" "4"

I'd like to add a quirk so the driver will do this automatically for your card.
