Anyway .. enough complaining. :) I have used both methods shown by the links below to install the ATI drivers and had success each time on this Thinkpad T60p with the v5200. I don't know about an X1400 however. Here are the links: http://www.desktoplinux.com/articles/AT7527984757.html http://linux.wordpress.com/2006/05/12/suse-101-ati-drivers-installation/

Bruce, I too have a T60p with the V5200 and got the ATI driver installed which works well for X sessions but I get strange corruption when when I switch to a console screen with Ctrl+Alt+Fn.
