Now i think my problem is that my X1700 is not supported; when i do a lspci this is what comes back with my card M66-P [Mobility Radeon X1700]. I can't find anywhere saying that my card is supported.
Below is the error i get in the Xorg.0.log
(II) Avivo: driver for Radeon r5xx chipsets: RV515 (Radeon X1300),
RV530 (Radeon X1600), RV530 (Radeon X1600), R580 (Radeon X1900 GT),
RV530 (Radeon X1650 Pro), M52 (Mobility Radeon X1300)
(II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0
(--) Assigning device section with no busID to primary device
(EE) No devices detected.

Originally posted by Michael View PostYes, you are getting the no devices detected as the X1700 ID isn't there. It should work with the X1700, but the ID just hasn't been added. See the article for how to add the IDs. In the article it mentions where you just need to add the PCI IDs and such. If you still are having problems, I can try to tell you exactly what to do for your Mobility X1700.
Could you please let me know what exactly to do?

Thank you for making those modifications for me; i replaced the files and compiled it again. Now the problem is that when i start X with the usual resolution 1024x768 my screen goes all wacky. Could this be an issue with the avivo driver or something in my xorg.conf file?
This is part of my Xorg.0.log file:-

You do have an error about AIGLX in your log, do you have the following in your xorg.conf?
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AIGLX" "off"
EndSection
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Disable"

Thanks Michael; that worked a treat. After all the reading i've done you would have thought i would have picked that up. Guess it wasn't my modeline after all. Loving the 1280x800 resolutionI hope my posts help anyone out there with an ASUS F3JP with a X1700 ati card.
The open-source driver seems rather slow when moving a window around it isn't as smooth and is unstable when changing from X to tty1 (shell) and back again; it just locks up. Hopefully i'm guessing these bugs will be addressed and fixed in the near future.
Thanks again for all your help Michael; keep up the fantastic work with this forum and your site. I really enjoy reading all the Reviews.
Regards,
Dom

Regarding the performance, right now the Avivo driver is slower than VESA but its performance will be greatly improved as development progresses so be sure to stay tuned to Phoronix for additional details.Michael Larabel
