There are two main problems with the implementation of my ati xpress 200 m driver into Xorg. 1st. from time to time, when booting the laptop, XDM fails to start and the computer becomes unresponsive - it hangs 2nd. gaussview (a quantum chemistry visualization proprietary package hangs the computer ) - the relevant sections of the files are posted below xorg-server-1.7.3.901-r1 xf86-video-ati-6.12.4 $./gaussview Warning, xpress200 detected.

please attach the full X log and config, and dmesg.
Created attachment 32459 [details] dmesg dmesg (problem is not related to kernel version, all the >2.6.20 kernels behave the same)
Created attachment 32460 [details] xorg log file

(In reply to comment #1) > please attach the full X log and config, and dmesg. > thank you for your response. I've attached the files. I have to mention that I had no problems before (with an old Xorg server - don't remember the version) and with kernel 2.6.5 or something - I mean gaussview worked fine and I didn't experienced any random XDM crashes. regards, Bogdan
