ATI Mobility Radeon 7000This is an ATI video adapter Features
|
Also known (in IBM literature) as....
- ATI Mobility RADEON
- ATI Rage Mobility RADEON M6
- ATI Rage Mobility RADEON M6MC
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" "True"
- 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 GATOS project.
Read 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
- tested and working under debian (with re-compiled kernel 2.6.16-9)
ThinkPads this chip may be found in
Problems (and Solutions)
Xorg & OpenGL
See http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-451151-highlight-.html for information on how to enable stable OpenGL support. Some of the tricks are:
- disable the console frame buffer.
- disable the hardware cursor in Xorg.
- plus some more.
