I set up my ATI card at the installfest, haven't got it working with 3d acceleration yet though. Also X randomly freezes occasionally, with the only solution appearing to be rebooting the computer (hard reboot) :( Also does this in the console. (Install diary to come...)
Not sure if the driver is right or not for your card. Aside: I can't do an lspci to find out what my card is...
