Might I mention that the only solution to the neomagic chipset as of about 
3 months ago was the XGi solution also?  And no more than 3 or 4 months 
after the card shipped there was a redhat solution.  If you are short on 
money, you may want to hold off for about 3 or 4 months (run at the low 
resolution) and wait for the chipset to be supported..it will be, it'll 
just take time.

Steve,

As far as I know, the only current solution is to buy
Xi Graphic's Laptop Accelerated X Server for $160
from www.linuxmall.com.  I do not think that the ATI
Rage Pro LT is yet supported through XF86.......
Hey out there, is this really a fact?

I bought the server after a trial download from www.xig.com
I think that it's worth it.  Why spend almost $4000 for a
notebook and then bicker about $160, when you get
accelerated performance at full resolution and depth.
My only regret is that they have not put out an OpenGL
Laptop version.
