T41p - Problems with XFree configuration

[u***@esct.org]

Hi,

I've a IBM Thinkpad T41p with a "ATI 128MB Fire GL T2" Graphic board.
Is there anybody there they have a running configuration with this
Graphic card?

The actual XFree86 documentation ist not listed the card :-(


I've try a vesa configuration, but that not work also.
A XFree86 conf sample for vesa are also very welcome!


Regards,
Andreas

After parahat melayev tip(X -configure) and remove any prior
configfiles, the X-server started fine in vesa mode.

I hope ati bring up a native driver in the future.

Reagrds,
Andreas

XFree86 4.3.0's radeon driver should support the FireGL T2 (though
without 3D acceleration). If it doesn't work, try installing
x11-servers/XFree86-4-Server-snap from ports.

Not bloody likely, unfortunately.
