Barry, can you update easily? There's been many improvements made since 
10.4, so that would be my best advice. Otherwise, there is an admin tool 
to configure AMD video chip sets, I wrote about this once before and I 
forget the name of the app. But, it is in the recent version of Ubuntu 
repos. Just go to your AMD chipset web site and you should see the 
application there, plus the Linux version. Then, do a synaptic search to 
see if it's available for 10.4 and use that instead of a roll-your-own 
version. Ric
