That's big news! So the DVI out on a Thinkpad T30 with an ATI Radeon Mobility 7500 AGP (LW) which has an advertised capability of only 1200x1024 will do [EMAIL PROTECTED] (with a Dell 2000FP 20" flat panel at least) under XP with this Catalyst patch. I was VERY close under X but there was a little noise. At least we know now the hardware and connectors can handle it. Maybe we'll see that driver one day ...
