=== Linux X.Org driver ===
Not supported by the Xorg radeon driver

It's a pitty... such a nice card!!!!!!! Yum! Yum!

==== ThinkPad LCD ====
Display on the internal LCD works as long as you set the monitor settings correct. Changing the driver from "ati" to "vesa" in xorg.conf will start X but with lower resolution than expected

Full resolution can be archived when all modelines are removed and mode 1600x1200 with depth 24 is selected

==== External VGA port ====
Yes

==== SVideo port ====
No

==== DVI port ====
No

=== Proprietary ATI driver ===
Proprietary [[fglrx]] driver does not officially support this chipset but version 8.24.8 works by adding "ChipID 0x71c5" to the xorg.conf "Device" statement and fooling it into thinking it's a X1600 mobility.

=== Linux kernel Framebuffer driver ===

Not supported.

=== ThinkPads this chip may be found in ===
