You have to wait until the Radeon R500/R600 in-development driver is part of an Xorg release. Until then, I succesfully use the VESA driver and get 1400x1050 on a Thinkpad T60 just fine.
Yeah i have this card as well except PCI-E. Running on Ati driver seems to work but u know... whats the point of having a good card if all its gonna do is display what a cheep $20 card can D:
True, unless your going for Compiz-Fusion or 3D intensive stuff (animation software, 3d games etc) you could live off like a 8mb or 16mb graphics card!
I was using PC-BSD with a Matrox G200 card at one point (8MB stolen from RAM) and had no real problems.
