It's easy to get things confused here: I'm using XFree86 with the DRI
radeon driver and not the firegl drivers (not much of the time,
anyway...) and am watching vids mostly on console. The vesafb console
works fine with the tv out as does the firegl X, the dri X I can't get
to work with it. I get good speed with all options ATM (Athlon 1600+
IIRC).

I dual boot so I don't use the 3d stuff in Linux...
