It says "AMD Radeon HD 7xxx series are not supported in Linux until now and even the latest version of Catalyst 12.2 doesn't support these video cards.
The open-source software doesn't support this cards too."

Anyone. Please solve my query.

In general, HD7xxx GPUs are supported by the latst open source radeon driver and the proprietary driver from AMD (though I can not specifically speak about your GPU). The last release of the proprietary driver does not work on Fedora 17, though the 12.6 beta does with some patching.

Intel HD GPUs are supported.

Laptops with hybrid graphics, however, may only be able to make use of the intel GPU. Some people have gotten the proprietary driver to work with their hybrid laptop, others have not. Unfortunately, no one will be able to tell you if the AMD GPU will work on your laptop in Fedora until you actually try it.

Uhm ... Yeah.

Howzabouts less attitude all the way 'round?

If I boot the Live CD on a laptop with 7670M card, how can I check if Fedora is properly supporting the video card?
