ATI has actually an driver available for Linux on their page. You just need to have a specific version of Xorg or FreeX installed, which I believe did match with suse 10.0.
i have tried the 64bit version and my 'known working" 32bit dvd version and they both allow me to select the install or safe mode, but they just go to a black screen afterwords, so i think its video related, could this card be too new to be supported?
If it is really the graphic driver you should be able to install in the text mode without any problems. I got a bunch of ideas when looking on this page: http://linux-laptop.net/ for other Comapaq/HP laptops with the same chip set of mine. Cheers, Guenter
