Robert, I was aware from other posts that it wouldn't be straight forward installing drivers for my graphics card under Linux. I did indeed use a RPM site to get BlitzMax working and find the necessaries for the graphics card drivers as well.

SuSe has my card listed as an ATI R350 NH (the chipset for the 9800 Pro?) using fglrx drivers under X.org 6.8. It says that it's not 3D capable though, which is my main problem. Anyhow, as you requested, here's what I get with fglrxinfo after installing the RPM and running rglrxconfig...

display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.1)

I also ran 3Ddiag, which gives me this...

3Ddiag version 0.722
Verifying 3D configuration:
Using 3dinfo

No 3D capable graphic chipset found!

Checking GL/GLU/glut runtime configuration:
GL/GLU ... done (package xorg-x11-Mesa)
glut ... done (package freeglut)

I'm currently thinking of upgrading to 9.3 Pro, but if I get this working then I won't bother.
