Guarda qua: http://modular.math.washington.edu/macbook/ si parla di MacBook, ma il principio è sempre quello.
I was able to compile the closed source radeon drivers somehow, but they don't work since I haven't enabled BIOS emulation yet. My "working directory" might be of interest to you.
New: The drivers do work now that I've switched a triple-boot Boot Camp system. Relevant mailing list discussion:

Hello, i try to install new ati driver on my linux system. The installation
on Xorg and the modprobe action for the fglrx module works very well, but
wharn i try to start an X session, it exits with the follow error message :
(EE) fglrx(0): No V_BIOS found
(EE) fglrx(0): PreInitInt10 failed
SetVBEMode failed
(EE) fglrx(0): R200PreInit failed
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
Anyone has the same problem?

The ATI driver will only work under the legacy CRM, because it's horrid.
Please do bitch at ATI about this.

You must boot with BootCamp to get the ATI driver work.
