I too have a thinkpad T60 with a slightly 'better' radeon chipset, at least the model number is slightly higher: 11:16 insomniac:~% dmesg|grep radeondrm radeondrm0 at pci1 dev 0 function 0 "ATI Radeon Mobility X1400" rev 0x00: apic 1 int 16 drm0 at radeondrm0 radeondrm0: VRAM: 128M 0x0000000000000000 - 0x0000000007FFFFFF (128M used) radeondrm0: GTT: 512M 0x0000000008000000 - 0x0000000027FFFFFF radeondrm0: 1400x1050 wsdisplay0 at radeondrm0 mux 1: console (std, vt100 emulation), using wskbd0 It currently has an uptime of 6 days 16hrs, I beat the graphics regularly. 6 days 16hrs ago i did an update to a newer snapshot. my desktop running a radeon hd3650 had an uptime of over 15 days whilst using heavy gl stuff. managed to freeze it with a browser, though ;) laptop has yet to freeze since radeondrm officially in-tree, it was a bit shakey during the initial radeondrm tests, but those weren't even public in the first place. my Thinkpad T60 does not have an option to switch between radeon and an intel chip. -ryan > > Erling
