ATI Mobility FireGL V5200

This is a ATI video adapter

Features

  • Chipset: ATI M56 - Similar to Radeon X1600
  • PCI ID: 1002:71c4
  • PCI Express x16
  • 256 MB GDDR3-SDRAM video memory

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.
