Some time ago it was loud in internet about this mod. The matter was simple soldering to unlock additional 4 rendering pipes, and a bios change to change hardwane ID's. I took bios from Hercules R9700(non pro). > I tried radeonfb 0.1.8 and it always says: "cannot map FB". I tried vesafb and it doesn't print anything at all. I can use this card only in 80x25 mode on console. X works OK in any resolution, same Windows and all Windows games. [fix your line-length, please. 72 chars is really enough] How much memory do you have? If you have 1 gigabyte, does booting with mem=512M help?
