If you're using Potato, no way: XFree 3.3.6 does not offer support for
Radeon chipsets.
XFree 4 has it, but you still need version 4.1.99 at least: this is the
first release to support the Mobility Radeon chipset, which is what you have
on your machine.
Sid and Woody version, 4.1.0-14 (at the moment I'm writing), DOES NOT work,
so you have to manually recompile XFree yourself.
HTH, bye.
