hi,

I've installed the latest CVS from X.org on my T40 2373-8cg running Debian Sid.

My Radeon is a Radeon 7500.

X.org works fine, I've used this site and it worked great:
http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=204593

As told on the list and on this page I enabled the Powerplay with
http://www.sas.upenn.edu/~vbraun/computing/T41/power.html

Option      "DynamicPM" "True"

I've tried also

Option      "DynamicPM" "Always"

as told here:
http://bugs.xfree86.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96


but I get only this one in the Xorg.0.log

(II) RADEON(0): Dynamic Clock Scaling Disabled
(WW) RADEON(0): Option "DynamicPM" is not used


Also the binaries for both sites doesn't work, the whole system hangs after the start of Xwindows.

Any idea how to fix this or any people I can contact to this problem???
