Hi,
I don't know whether the X.Org or XFree86 drivers work with the X700,
although I suspect they are fine, but I do know that ATI's proprietary
driver does not support suspend / resume, and so can be a pain on a
laptop.
See question ID 218 on the ATI site (Advanced Search, "by ID"...).
Unfortunately ATI's website now sucks even more than it used to, and
deep linking appears to be impossible... :-(
Regards,
Andrew McMillan.
