I installed FC4 (kernel 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 (the smp version)). I have an ATI Radeon X850 XT AGP vid card. And want to run the Big Head config (I have two Viewsonic A90f+ crt monitors). My mother board is a Asus P4C800 Deluxe w/ a 3.0 Ghz P4 w/ HT.

I am currently running my card with the Vesa drivers

I downloaded the most recent ATI drivers for it (8.16.20), ran the script/gui installer, and ran fglxrconfig. When I reboot, x crashes. I don't know what I am doing wrong. But it doesn't seem like my computer (in linux anyway) is detecting the card correctly.

Has anyone have any suggestions or has anyone else w/ a ATI X850 XT gotten theirs working properly.
