Does anyone know if the TV in/out features work in Linux on the Radeon 7500/8500 All-In-Wonder models?

I initially had an XPERT2000 (Rage 128 Pro, which gave very nice 2-D performance). I recently switched to a Radeon VE, and have run it on the 8.2 kernel as well as an upgraded kernel similar to the one in Mdk 9.0.The drivers supplied by Mdk worked OK. Have you been able to verify that the proper driver is loaded (driver information at http://mirror.ati.com/support/driver.html)? If so, is the information in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 about the card and driver correct? By any chance, does the machine giving you these problems have an Athlon CPU (http://linuxtoday.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2002-01-21-001-20-NW-KN)?
