For prosperity sake, I too have a thinkpad 600E.  It works well under XFree
3.3.5 with 1024x786x16.  It'll also run at 8 or 24 bpp, but those modes are
slower.  If your XFree is having trouble detecting the card, you may want
to add 'Chipset "NM2200"' under your device section in your X config.

I have no idea what an O2Micro OZ6832/6833 is, so I can't attest to whether
it exists on the 600E.  What I do know, is that the Thinkpad 600E has
pcic's that report themselves as the TI1251A, and I have been able to
kludge cardbus support for this chip without ever knowing about O2Micro.
