In the meantime, they keep a futile eye on Catalyst release notes, hoping that the linux vsync issues will someday get resolved. I'm sure if that ever happens, we will hear about it right away on this list.<br>

Have you tried the radeon driver (not radeonhd) lately? That's what I<br>
use for an integrated X1250. I've heard HD3200 is supported. I get<br>
no problems with sync. Even handles interlaced display modes correctly.<br>
</blockquote><div><br>Definitely not lately. The very first thing I ever tried was probably the radeon driver, or whatever is packaged as the default in MythDora 5. I recall that for HD, it was completely unable to keep up on my CPU (4850e), whereas the proprietary fglrx and nvidia drivers are just fine. I should have another look -- at least until myth/vdpau is released, then it's bye-bye ATI. :)<br>
