I downloaded the ISO image for Mandrake 6.1. The XServer, probe and everything worked great with no additional tweaking or patching at all on a 770X with XGA screen. As the software was installing, it had indicated XFree86 version 3.3.5.
Big improvement since the last time I tried installing Linux right out of the box.
Thanks Bill!
Dan

AFAIK any distribution with a 3.3.4 XFree86 or above should also have the patches for the 770X/Z included.
XFree86.org (http://www.XFree86.org/) always has the most current drivers.
If you mean the most current distribution then every distributor releases their versions when they feel like it, so you will have to check out the web site of your distribution of choice.
