It works on my T43p with the V3200!!! YUPEEE! suspend to disk and xrandr 
also works! But not with radeon_fb - with vesafb.
Suspend to ram does not work... but it's the same story without the 
fglrx - when resuming the cdrom powers up, but that is all - nothing 
else seems to wake up.

but the xv does not work at all - X crashes when I try to play something 
with mplayer -vo xv

Also the glxgears performance is a little low:
cartman ~ # glxgears
2114 frames in 5.0 seconds = 422.800 FPS
2277 frames in 5.0 seconds = 455.400 FPS
2150 frames in 5.0 seconds = 430.000 FPS

Unfortunately fgl_glxgears does not work... anybody with the same problem?

cartman ~ # fgl_glxgears
Using GLX_SGIX_pbuffer
X Error of failed request:  BadLength (poly request too large or 
internal Xlib length error)
  Major opcode of failed request:  16 (X_InternAtom)
  Serial number of failed request:  36
  Current serial number in output stream:  38

Any better results? how ?
