Something is definitely amiss here:
You say that you have an Xpert2000Pro, but this:
===
pci bus 0x1 cardnum xxxx function xxxxxx: vendor xxxxxx device xxxxxx
ATI Mach64
===
Refers to ATI's older chipsets (Mach64CT/VT/GT, Rage1, Rage2c and Rage Pro)
Is it possible that you have an onboard graphics chipset in addition to
your Xpert2000Pro.
ALso, just to verify what the Xpert2000Pro is like: Does it have a
heatsink?,
and please verify that it is an actual card and not integrated on the
motherboard.
Barry.

I would just expect that my kernel would be able to see the card as I have
the drivers installed but don't think that it can.
# scanpci -v
{all the other cards}
pci bus 0x1 cardnum 0x00 function 0x0000: vendor 0x1002 device 0x5446
ATI Device unknown <---- *** This tends to suggest to me that it can't ***
I have looked as the output from another computer at work today with an ATI
card and it looks like this.
# scanpci -v
{all the other cards}
pci bus 0x1 cardnum xxxx function xxxxxx: vendor xxxxxx device xxxxxx
ATI Mach64
Would it be possible that I have to tell the kernel where to find the
card?
I have a 2.4.8 kernel with XFree86 4.1.0

Roger
