I've got a Toshiba Portege 2010 sub-notebook (older model; 866MHz and
512MB RAM) and it comes with the Trident CyberBlade XP video card. It
doesn't have any form of 3D acceleration in X yet but they have worked
out the 2D stuff well enough. I've got VMware installed on the Portege
running under Fedora Core 2, if you want to have a look tomorrow night
you are most welcome. It seems to run most stuff quick enough for my
needs, it even handles running two or three virtual machines at the same
time.
Cheers,
Tim
