Data points: My last machine, a Gateway 2150XL (Mobility 'M', 4 megs) couldn't run using any XFree86 servers that I tried, the best I could get was a screen with amazing vertical banding - even attempting to install Solaris/Intel resulted in the same thing. A Dell Inspiron 7500 (Mobility 'P', 8 megs) has no such problems and the latest RedHat 6.2 went straight on (text mode install) and detected and configured the Mach_64 server correctly for 1024*768, 32 bit. I realise that's not a result with Debian but there you go. I'm not sure what the differences are, but ATI's site mentions that manufacturers using those chipsets can customise them to a certain extent - that's why they have no generic drivers on the site.
