hi all, i've just bought a new ati radeon 9000, obviusly there aren't
still drivers, but i found a patch for xfree to work a radeon 9000 as a
8500. Someone has told that the 8500 is similar to 9000. 
Well the problem is with the vesa driver, i tryed something like:
mplayer -vo vesa:vidix:radeon_vid.so file.divx
and mplayer -vo vesa:vidix file.divx
obviously i connected the tv-out to the tv before the boot of the pc and
obviously i was root on console.
Follow the log:

font: can't open file: /root/.mplayer/font/font.desc
font: can't open file: /usr/local/share/mplayer/font/font.desc
Radeon_vid: Found chip: Unknown chip
Radeon_vid: Driver was forced. Was found unknown chip
Radeon_vid: Assuming it as Radeon1
Radeon_vid: Video memory = 64Mb
Radeon_vid: Set write-combining type of video memory
VIDIX: Description: BES driver for radeon cards
VIDIX: Author: Nick Kurshev
libavcodec: CPU flags: mmx

vo_vesa: Hint: To get workable TV-Out you should have plugged
tv-connector in
vo_vesa: before booting PC since VESA BIOS initializes itself only
during POST
vo_vesa: Using VESA mode (27) = 1c6 [640x350 at 0]
vo_vesa: Using DGA (physical resources: D0000000h, 04000000h)
vosub_vidix: video server has unsupported color depth by vidix (0)
vo_vesa: Can't initialize VIDIX driver
init_vo failed
vo_vesa: vbeRestoreState returns: VESA failed = 0x4fff
vo_vesa: vbeSetMode returns: VESA failed = 0x4fff





Then there is
any hope to work the tv-out of the radeon 9000 ?
or may be is it my mistake ?
thx all :-)
