Radeon HD4550


Anyone gotten one of these to work by chance? I'm looking at the ATI web page, and see no Linux driver. Damn.

I've got a HD4850 and it works either with the radeonhd driver that comes with X or it works with ATI's driver. Since I've just gotten the card, I haven't messed with it much, but Slackware picked it up straight away (radeonhd) so I would suspect Gentoo could. I can also boot with an Ubuntu/Kubuntu liveCD without problems.
