lspci thinks my laptop has
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x (rev 02)
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 contains
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "ati"
VendorName "ATI"
BoardName "Rage 128 Mobility LF"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
So, it looks like I'm using the ATI driver; it works fine for me.
It's also worth noting that my laptop (a Dell Latitude C600) has a
non-standard 1400x1050 display, so I need
Modeline "1400x1050" 108.000 1400 1448 1462 1688 1050 1050 1053 1066
in the monitor section for this to work correctly (that line snarfed
from an XF86Config file in a Dell-provided RPM).
