Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 with an ATI Mobility Radeon X1400. I'm using radeonhd driver on linux 2.6.32-trunk-686 (Debian Squeeze). I would like to get suggestions as to which options I should allow on xorg.conf, or where I can find information to improve the driver's performance.
Right now it's pretty crappy. It used to work really well with fglrx, but since it's not supported on newer kernels, I haven't been able to use it.
So, I decided maybe there's a way I can get radeonhd to work decently on my laptop before I install an older kernel for fglrx. I'm not looking for 3D support (not aware if it's already available on the driver), but it would be nice anyways. Full screen video playback is extremely slow, sometimes it locks for a few seconds.
Recommendations?
