I own a ATI Mobility 9600 video card. I have looked on their website, and thought that they didn't make Linux drivers, but than someone on a online forums said they had theirs running with Linux drivers.
I have tried installing Fedora, but that didn't work. I got Ubuntu running actually, but was just having a hard time getting the video card drivers so I can play windows games using Cedega.

I was thinking about selling the laptop soon so I can buy a desktop with a Nvidia card in it.

I think I might still do that if I am going to have to build a .deb package from scratch in order to install the drivers.

Can someone please tell me where I might find a .deb package for the Radeon drivers? Maybe it is in Synaptic?
TJ has a link to the support page with Linux drivers, but I am wondering if that will work for the Mobility chipset?
