PS: there is anecdotal evidence (forum posts) to suggest that this has
worked "out of the box" since Ubuntu 8.04 (or the Debian equivalent),
but got broken somewhat in Intrepid. I didn't find this to be the case
but then I run the ATI driver not fglrx.  (and soon back to nvidia! --
the ASUS N51vf arrives tomorrow! yay!)
