	I can't speak about Radeons, but I *can* speak about Rage 128s
	(used, for instance, in my iBook, which, of course, runs
	Linux). It works quite well and has xv (among other things)
	supported.

	OTOH, I think that Radeons are only fully supported starting
	with XFree86 4.2.0. I'm actually not sure, but people with
	newer Powerbooks (with Radeon chipsets) may actually want to
	use that.

	Otherwise, you can use the http://gatos.sf.net/ drivers.

	So, I guess that the answer to your question would be: "yes".
