Hi, got a 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV516 [Radeon X1300/X1550 Series] card and tried to use KMS and radeon since its in the mainline tree but got no luck yet (using ubuntu maverick Xorg 7.5 + radeon 6.13.x). In X Screen does have some black lines running over the screen every time - reading some text on white background is really hard because of these black lines running through the screen everytime, hope you know what i mean. This does happen with and without using KMS. The only configuration which is usable in terms of you can do your work >1 hour is to disable KMS and using the "old" radeonhd driver (git tree) - which does work fine and without those "glitches". Any help or information i can provide to make radeon "work" like radeonhd to get rid of those "black" lines running over the screen causing headaches?
Additional info, it is a RV516 chip: [ 59807.498] (II) RADEONHD(0): Card not in database: 0x7187:0x1028:0x0402; using generic modesetting. [ 59807.498] (--) RADEONHD(0): Detected an RV516 on an unidentified card
