If you do a google search, you will probably find out
what I did ages ago. I do not think things have changed
since then. The Radeon 9200 is a agp version 3 chip.
This does not have support in the 2.4 kernels. Support
is in the 2.6 kernels but you will have to backport it
yourself. Therefore no 3D for you.

Hmmm, I've got the A7V8X and the A7N8X-X.

At the moment nothing. If things have changed, please let
me know.
