Well, you must have it good then. What about when playing DVDs? Do you
get missed frames?? and what about CPu usage?? For mine, it's bad, it
drops frames and it uses up to 90% CPU!!! Not nice at all.

I run Gentoo and I'm using the xorg from boom.kalf.org/epia

Can you tell me what's the best method for running/building it under
Gentoo? Send me the mail Off-List if wanted.

I just want to make it work. It's been too much work and too much
heartache/headache and it's pi***** me off.
