To add to the confusion: On my MBPC2D 17" with X1600 I have Debian Testing running with Kernel 2.6.20, Ortwin's patches, ATI Driver 8.34.8 (kernel module patch: http://www.phoronix.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1033 ) and Xorg 7.1 . OpenGL and XVid Acceleration work perfectly, external screens work, suspend-to-ram works perfectly and stable. (Only my touchpad is behaving worse. E.g. always detecting a palm on it. And this damn iSight never worked with any of the patches) Fascinating how more or less the same platform and drivers can behave so differently.

I don't feel like I should edit the Gentoo Wiki (which is an absolutely fantastic source of information). -- Raphael Wimmer LFE Media Informatics E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Munich Skype: real_raphman Amalienstr. 17 / Room 206 WWW: http://www.medien.ifi.lmu.de 80333 Munich Tel: +49 (89) 2180-4659 Germany Fax: +49 (89) 2180-99-4659 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
