Sigh, another +1.
Thinkpad T30, Radeon 7500.
Runs fine on the thinkpad LCD 1024x768 screen.
Dual head is very unstable, will not run for longer than 10 minutes
which makes it pretty unusable :-( Dual-head was not supported at all in
FC-5, and was very stable in FC-4. (regressions *sigh*).
After playing around with the radeon driver more advanced options, I was
able to setup it up with external CRT monitor only (with thinkpad LCD
screen disabled), at 1600x1280. Runs ok, but I have had occasional X
freezes, once every few days or so.
Is there a practical way to catch a kernel trace when that happens ?
A great positive with the Radeon 7500 is compiz *just works*, which is
awesome.
