I guess the simplest way to find out is to look at 'man 4 radeon' on your system. It should be the version corresponding version for your driver. At the start of the man page you'll see all the supported systems. I believe your chipset, if supported, should be listed something as below. JUNIPER Radeon HD 5750/5770 However note that this doesn't mean you will have full 3D support. This only guarantees 2D rendering. Its my hunch the F15 radeon version (package: xorg-x11-drv-ati) is still too old to support your chipset. If that proves to be the case, installing the proprietary drivers from RPMFusion is your only recourse. GL -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
