Where do you find that model number? I believe that I have the same machine
as you, and it X worked out of the box for me with ydl 2.3.

[noa@ellen vorbis-tools]$ grep Radeon /proc/pci     
    VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY
(rev 0).

[noa@ellen vorbis-tools]$ rpm -q XFree86
XFree86-4.2.0-6.30e

[noa@ellen vorbis-tools]$ rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.4.19-4a

Perhaps you have ydl 2.2?
