Xorg does now have support for the mobility chips IIRC. I did some research
on laptops at the end of last year, but did not buy so i may have this
wrong. However i thought Xorg 6.8 had support for some ATI mobility
stuff, and it was fairly new.

luxury, the first computer i used had to be bootstrapped with a hex
keypad then loaded from hand fed punch cards or a paper tape reader. the
output was a row of led's until you got the os loaded, then you got a
teletype.

Anyway I look forward to successfully showing you gentoo (Nick crosses
fingers that he can successfully get this hardware working sweetly)
