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.
The new driver 8.25.18 seems to support the card, see https://support.ati.com/ics/support/KBAnswer.asp?questionID=1643 (successfully tested with the provided autorun installation script on OpenSuSE 10.1, T60p with 15" display).
Linux kernel Framebuffer driver
Not supported.
