I've noticed 1080i output seems to be a sore point, and is one of the
things I was referring to when I said there only seem to be a handful of
chipsets that work right.  A lot of people seem to be reporting problems
with image tearing when outputting to HDTV sets, unless they're using a
few specific chipset and driver versions that are known to do interlaced
output properly.
