Hi,

I've tried it in my ATI based laptop (Radeon Mobile 9000 - M9) - but it
didn't work :(

My first try was with (nearly) everything at the default setting. My
second try was with the GPL driver.

Once the main screen was up, I got the warning that direct rendering was
disabled. When I tried to start the launcher anyway, it appeared - but
disappeared just a second later.

Looking at the X server log I found:
- - the synaptics module couldn't be found and thus loaded
- - AGP is not available and thus DRI was disabled
  (in the next line it suggested to load agpgart)

Apart from that:
- - I couldn't select my screen size of 1400x1050
- - I couldn't select the German keyboard layout

I hope this helps a bit. Especially the keyboard setting can be a
problem when this CD is given to the people at the Linux Tag...

CU,
Christian
