I finally used ati-drivers, as it's supposed to fully support the 3000 ATI
cards. It installs all right, but launching X goes fine until it prints
"PreInitDAL failed" in Xorg.0.log sticks to a X black screen. Only way to get
out of it: "magic keys" Alt-PrtScr-k...
What's that DAL thing ? How to have it "PreInit", then init ?
The problem seems to occur with various ATI cards, various fglrx versions since
at least 2004. Many solutions have been found, but none that works for me. Any
cue ? Please help.
