=== Linux WiFi driver ===
The [[Madwifi]] driver works with this adapter

Madwifi has 2 sets of drivers at the time of this writing (2005-12-03) the new and old ones. The new ones didn't work for me, I had to download the old ones. After installing the old ones, on at least my thinkpad X31 on fedora core 4, after installing the driver (from compiling the source, i.e. make/make install) you need to edit /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-ath0 and delete the "rate" entry.

=== ThinkPads this card may be found in ===
* {{G40}}, {{G41}}
* {{R40}}, {{R40e}}
* {{T40}}, {{T40p}}
* {{X31}}

=== Linux driver - OpenSource ===
This adapter is supported by recent versions of the 'radeon' driver as found in X.Org and XFree86.
==== ThinkPad LCD ====
Display on the internal LCD works as long as you set the monitor settings correct.

For Xinerama to work properly on Fedora Core 4 you need to first configure it with the display tools, then manually add
*Option "MergedFB" "on"
*Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS, CRT"
to the Videocard0 section.

==== External VGA port ====
Works fine with xorg radeon driver.

==== SVideo port ====
SVideo out is supported by the ati.2 driver from the [http://gatos.sourceforge.net/ GATOS project].<br/>
Read [[How to get TV-Out working on ATI graphic cards|here]] how to set it up.

=== Linux driver - Proprietary ===
This chip is not supported by the proprietary ATI driver

=== Linux kernel Framebuffer driver ===
tested and working fine under gentoo
