			Some of the issues are the same issues that have been plaguing the driver, just finally acknowledged. The one about the 1680x1050 resolution is true, accept when I tried the driver I could only get 1024x768. Similar issues have also been observed with a Thinkpad T43 and HP 8510p; the native resolution of 1400x1050 cannot be used, and even if it is the only mode defined in xorg.conf, the display starts up with 1280x1024. Same on a MacBook Pro (maximum is 1152x864, should be 1400x900). Bugs [http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=160 160] and [http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=939 939] cover this issue.
