I've been using them with a Radeon card for about a month in a dual athlon machine and so far it looks good. I was getting latency hits of about 18 msecs without the dri patches. [but I'm still getting latency hits of around 8-10 mSecs when using the 3ware scsi raid driver (3w-xxxx), I tried to find out what is causing them but eventually gave up, at least for now] BTW, thanks a lot for the patch... -- Fernando
