DVI in Linux

Does anybody have any experience with getting DVI on a Thinkpad to work in Linux? Since this is only possible by using the Advanced Mini Dock I'm hoping any replies will reference that route. I'm specifically interested in the T60p but, anything similar would be helpful.
thanks,

DVI from the Advanced Mini Dock works fine with Linux. I'm running Ubuntu 7.04 on my T60 and have two 21 inch Samsung TFTs attached to the dock (DVI & VGA). Works great, except the quality of the VGA image isn't that great compared to the image on the DVI connected screen.
