I have an IBM Thinkpad R51with a Radeon Mobility 9000 M9.
It works quite well with FreeBSD 5.4. The only issue I have, is that I cannot
have 3d-acceleration and at the same time have suspend-to-ram support.
(Theres a huge difference noticable when I run glxgears)
The device section in my xorg.conf looks like this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
# Driver "ati"
Driver "radeon"
VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc"
BoardName "Radeon R250 Lf [Radeon Mobility 9000 M9]"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
To enable dri for hardware acceleration I have to set acpi_video_load="NO"
in /boot/loader.conf
But then it doesn't wake up properly from suspend mode. Setting it to "YES"
dri cannot be loaded, but suspend mode works . Sorry, it was some time ago
when I configured all the things so I cannot not remember what the problem
finally was. (suspend to disk doesn't work at all)
The touch pad can easily been disabled in the bios (what I also did, because I
don't like it).
I hope that helps!
Peter
