Tried this on my MacbookPro1,1 (about a year old) with X1600/M56P using Bootcamp. The vesa driver works fine on this box although not in the native resolution - Using 'system-config-display --reconfig --noui --set-driver avivo --set-depth 24 --set-resolution=1440x900' - Had to reboot to get it to work; it consistently locked-up if I tried it after using fglrx - X.org output here; in hope it's useful http://people.freedesktop.org/~david/avivo-xorg.log - Performance is bad; I didn't try alexl's ShadowFB patch though. - VT switching either causes X server restart or locks up the box - The screen is flickering; it's especially visible with dark colors; some timing / modeline issue? - On the positive side, apart from the driver actually working, it seems that the artifacts in fglrx (and, fwiw, the ATI Windows drivers as well - I have Win XP and OS X on the box too) have been fixed. The artifact, in a nutshell, is that even though you have a solid color in your framebuffer it comes out on the LCD with an overlay of noise in the luminance channel (brings back memories from the Amiga's half-brite mode).
