i just tried the experimental r300 radeon driver for r300 ati chipsets . i got 
my laptop working with no closed driver and its working without crashes  ( 
except wine or aiglx ....) plays games to , pretty good for cvs code ^^ now 
if only i could get aiglx and beryl to work without hard locking my system 
its suppose to work with this driver .  anyway this driver works for my x600 
ati chipset on my laptop . when i use wine it crashes X too , which i dont 
use . 

im gona start working on a complete system rebuild to see if its my patched 
together cry of a system ...... gona use a usb hard drive and load off that 
for the build to test might test ubuntu aswell it suppose to support the r300 
out of the box 

( note the driver name is still the radeon driver just built with the r300 
support )
