  just to establish my street cred here, i invested several hours
trying to help debug this craziness:

way of a method that allows me to get a working configuration at full
resolution.  i'm open to ideas but, AFAICT, nothing's changed since
that bug report.

  argh.

Sorry for judging too fast, good luck with the drivers then. Maybe the
proprietary ones will work better, if you're fiddling with drivers
anyway?
  

I have F11 installed on my old laptop which has a radeon mobility 9600.
If I instal the vendor supplied latest driver (which has been relegated to
the legacy heap), and then I run googleEarth, the machine freezes up.
So, I have uninstalled it and am content with the driver supplied by Xorg.

It is not the fastest display driver - but at least it does not freeze up.

Cheers,

JD
