Listmates,
There are 2 issues that need to be addressed regarding the fglrx driver and the upcoming 11.2 release. Currently in 11.1, there are many laptop cards supposedly "supported" by the ATI driver that crash or hardlock when the driver is installed. Currently my X1200 is one,
I doubt that 9-3 driver and before will still work on xorg-server 1.6. 9-4 and later won't support R500 any longer. You'll need to switch to radeonhd for 11.2 anyway. BTW, radeonhd 1.2.5 now enables DRI on R500 by default.
the 200 is another from the list (I'm not sure what the technical card architecture is for the "200").
Don't know either.
You can view an unofficial table with details of the ATI video chips:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_ATI_Graphics_Processing_Units
The X200 and X1200 do'nt appear as "Mobility radeon".
They appear 2 versions of the X200 onboard and it has the RS400 family chip:
Radeon Xpress 200 IGP Mar 11, 2005 RS400
Radeon Xpress 200 IGP June? 2005 RS482
RS4xx is supported by radeon driver, but currently broken on openSUSE 11.1. Bugreports are filed.
And the Radeon X1200, has not the R500 chip:
Radeon X1200 IGP Feb 28, 2007 RS690C
supported by radeonhd driver including DRI. RS690 is a R500. Confusing I know.
