This laptop has an ATI card, does anyone know if the ATI Radeon(TM) HD 3200 Graphics with 64MB Display Cache Memory works well with Ubuntu? I know most ATI cards don't but am not sure about this specific model.

If so, will it have enough power to run Compiz Fusion? I am planning on running MPX, which is the reason I wanted MultiTouch. Compiz Fusion would be a very nice addition, but I don't think that card will run it, but I may be wrong.. :D

It's a little late, but I have a Toshiba laptop with ATI Radeon HD 3100 graphics and it does run on Compiz, although with some tweeks. I supose that HD 3200 will also run Compiz.

Ask if you need more detail.
