I tested the avivo driver running linux, it works fine with a firegl
5200 card. There is only one trouble with DPMS: the screen displays
something weird when it switches off then switches on.
Running openbsd stable, I use the vesa driver but there is no problem
here.
Does your laptop have a wide-screen monitor like mine? In T60p BIOS, there
is an option "HV expansion" which will stretch output to always fill the
screen. With this option enabled, I am able to "fill" the monitor, but
images do not have proper aspect ratio; so for now I have disabled the option.
