It actually works ok. However, it would be nice to have the builtin
graphics working properly too -- AFAICT the performance of the ATI
4250 (the drivers says it's "ATI Radeon HD 4290" but the docs say
it should be an "HD 4250") should be better than that of an nVidia
NV44 [GeForce 7100 GS].
Well you are comparing an accelerated driver with one that isn't. GPU
vendors are notoriously secretive about their parts, making it nigh on
impossible to write a good open accelerated driver.
After all, I'm only using text based applications (software
development, about 3-4 xterms each on 4 "virtual" pages).
It shouldn't be that bad...
