Default ATI 3D Accelleration Drivers

I am currently looking for some *working* ATI drivers for Fedora Core 3 for a Radeon 9600XT that support 3D accelleration.

The ones i have tried are really dogdy, like put the display out of wack.... and wont enable the accelleration....

Any help is appreciated.

I use the offical ATI drivers, from www.ati.com
Admittedly, I only have the 9600Pro, not XT. But they work fine here, play WoW all day long

Not for me, i tried setting up dual screens through the fglrxconfig doo hickey and it totally messed it up no matter what i chose it would just clone the main screen onto the secondary

ended up googling for 5 min and re-writing half the xorg.conf file myself

Check if the kernel module for it is loaded using lsmod. the module is named fglrx. Also check if the agpgart module is loaded and also the appropriate agp module for your motherboard chipset.
