Inspiron 8000+Ubuntu 8.04 and later

Hi Chris and everyone.

I find it very intresting that you say that the Radeon M4 was constructed for a
17inch laptop witch one might I ask? Is their any independent source that can
verify this?

The reason why I ask is so that I can realy the info and continue digging up
more info that can help in improving the driver support.

Great tips Hayes I'll be sure to pass it along to fellow Inspiron users.

CU all!
