[KLUG Members] 3D support for Radeon 7500

[Andy]

Good idea about the other machine.. unfortunately I
did not have SSH turn on and all outside packets were
being dropped by my router... I am wondering if there
may be a problem with Radeon and XFree 4.3.0 since I
can run RH 8.0 just fine.. I am in the process of
downloading/burning a Slack 9.0 CD to test and see if
it is 4.3.0 or if it is the distro I was trying. 

As for UT2003 and the Radeon I will have to find my
instruction manual but I believe it talks about the
installing DRI for ATI cards (Unless you own a 9000 or
higher then you can download binary 3D drivers from
ATI)
