RE: [K12OSN] ATI Video not detected - Output Part Deux-- CORRECTION!!

["Joe Niffen" <Joe Niffen NorthLANSolutions com>]

I the process on a ThinkPad A30P 2653-66U it returned
The following:

1002:4c59  ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY

I checked what I sent to you, the last digit should be a nine not a
seven.  

I had written the output on paper, and when I sent it to you I entered
the data improperly, sorry about that.

The correct output is listed above.

Joe

Yep,

And I got it, and added it to my patches folder, so that I'll remember 
to include it in the next update.
