T23s came with 9600?!

T23 came with an S3 SuperSavage, I think, but I think baraider now has a T4x model that isn't listed in his signature, and that DOES have an ATI 9600. I think this issue has been discussed at ubuntuforums.org, but I don't remember the answer.

Are you using the proprietary fglrx driver from ATI? fglrxconfig utility should be able to create a configuration file, in which the primary and secondary displays are set. You may have to select the desired output from the mplayer or any other media player.
Those of you who know better, please correct.
