ati radeon 7500 pci

I've been browsing the forums on this but really haven't seen a yes or no answer, so here it is. Will the livna ati drivers work with my older ati radeon 7500 (64mb) pci video card? I'd like to install it in my fc4 machine, a dell gx150 pIII 1.0 ghz w/512mb ram. the current video is the integrated intel 810 (32mb), which is ok i guess, but i would like to put the ati card to use. The only way I could get it to work on fc4 before was to change the driver from radeon to vesa in xorg.conf, although fc4 actually sees that its an ati radeon 7500...any input would be appreciated. thanks

It should work with the VESA drivers. However, I have never switched to these drivers, only from them to the proprietary drivers. It might be an idea to get a copy of someone else's xorg.conf file, who uses a similar card.

it does work with the vesa driver, but I would like to know if anyone has one working with the livna ati drivers. sorry for any misunderstanding.
