Radeon 7500 Mobile

[plat]

Hi, first post. I have read that Radeon 7500 will work with XFree 4.2 in 2d and 3d. Does anyone know if the same is true for the 7500 mobility?

Also this is a bit off topic but will a dvd/cdrw combo drive work in linux?

Buying a new laptop and trying to make sure it will be compatible. :cool:

Thanks a lot.

Since I have neither the 7500 mobility or a dvd/cdrw combo, I can only really suggest you try the driver support and documentation at www.xfree86.org (http://www.xfree86.org) and also lookup your laptop at www.linux-laptop.net (http://www.linux-laptop.net) to see if there is any mention of the dvd/cdrw combo.

Of course a Google search will also help.
