Re: radeon9200

to mat and everyone else: ..i got it to work!!

took a long while because i was a little too methodical and i was also
figuring some other stuff out (plus holidays and life getting in the
way and all).

pci was originally linked to pci0

$ ls -la /dev/*pci*

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel         4 Aug 30 13:29 /dev/pci -> pci1
crw-------  1 root  wheel   71,   0 Aug 30 13:00 /dev/pci0
crw-------  1 root  wheel   71,   1 Aug 30 13:00 /dev/pci1
crw-------  1 root  wheel   71,   2 Aug 30 13:00 /dev/pci2
crw-------  1 root  wheel   71,   3 Aug 30 13:00 /dev/pci3

i got pci to point to pci1 by doing this:

sudo ln -f -s pci1 /dev/pci

again, thanks a whole bunch!!
