ATI Mobility FireGL V3200

This is a ATI video adapter

Features

  • Chipset: ATI RV380 (M24) - Similar to Radeon X600
  • PCI ID: 1002:3154
  • PCI Express x16
  • 128MB GDDR1 video memory

Linux X.Org driver

Works fine with xorg 7.0.0

ThinkPad LCD

Display on the internal LCD works as long as you set the monitor settings correct.

External VGA port

Works fine using ATI fglrx driver version 8.19.10 configured with fglrxconfig into clone mode (display shows full resolution, external CRT shows full resolution with higher refresh rate). This was tested using SuSE 9.2 with a Thinkpad T43p.

On an Ubuntu Dapper external vga/ monitor/ beamer works fine with the following in /etc/xorg.conf. I used the free ati driver shipped with Dapper. For switching modes the gnome applet Grandr works fine.
