Likewise, but as we've been told, using the proprietary ATI Catalyst 9.8
for Linux drivers we are left with no support, I fortunately have decent
performance with my HD 4650 (rv730). It is set to 1920 x 1080 on both of
my screens (24" and 52" Samsung flat panels).

aticonfig --initial=dual-head 
aticonfig --help 

I'm still trying to find more info on how to fully utilize the aticonfig
settings. I still notice tearing on video playback, with quite
impressive framerate, no stuttering for the most part, unless you get
into 1080p .mkv video. 720p .mkv plays quite well. Flickering on flash
videos remains an issue. Of course we will not be able to enable any 3d
rendering as far as I know. The support is apparently somewhat there for
rv5xx, and rv6xx.

I bought this card for my older agp system to play video. It's an Athlon
64 3400+ with 3 GB of Mushkin Memory.  If anyone gets this working feel
free to leave some info on one of the http://ubuntuforums.org/index.php
threads. Search for rv730. I have posted in there. I'm pretty sure it's
clearly stated not to post here for fixes related to ATI/AMD proprietary
drivers, fglrx etc... I apologize sincerely.
