Hi.
   I've a Asus LK series notebook which has the same card (ATI Radeon 
Mobility M6 LY). It's from the latest release of XFree that it's really 
supported. I'm using December01-cvs release of XFree (4.1.99), so I 
think it's better to look at 4.2 pkgs now (where/if available [*]).


  As a newbie to this list ... I have a lot of questions to ask for :) 
So be patient with my future messages ;)

[*] : anyone know about unofficial X4.2 debian packages?

Bye,
