All T40 series machines support DVI in the dock or port replicator to my
best knowledge. The Radeon driver does support DVI, you just need to
make sure you boot the laptop with it as the primary display device;
you'll have to reboot the laptop every time you want to switch displays =(
I have been able to run up to 1680x1050 on my port replicator's DVI with
a Mobility M9, but I'm not sure how high the M7 (7500) can go. Nothing
above 1280x1024 is guaranteed to work at the hardware level.
