Episynapto kai oloklhro to patch (elpizo afto na mhn prokalei problhma 
sth list).

Se emena ola ta pio pano ekanan thn ATI-X300 na doulevei me

lathos, eite exete ta dika sas patch let me know ;)

Elpizo oti oi epomenoi proprietary drivers apo thn ATI tha yposthrizoyn 
Xorg7 kai ta kernel modules tha kanoyn compile correctly ;->

Exei kaneis dokimasei toys DRI drivers apo to freedesktop???
