I honestly have no idea. I can't think of any reason why they wouldn't
run on F7 if they do on FC6, though.
One thing I can tell you is that the only laptop I've tested with an
X1300 couldn't get the full native resolution with the free radeon
driver (FC6), so I had to use the proprietary one, but XV doesn't work
and X often crashes right after logging into GNOME...

I had similar problems years ago when I had a Mobility 9600 chip (no XV
and it killed the graphics card!). I really hate the proprietary ATI
Xorg driver... you've been warned... ;-p
