Hi,
Ever since my usage life with Linux I was always using nvidia cards with the closed source driver. Things run fine, but now I'm itching to try an open-source driver instead and make a small upgrade on my current card (an 6600).
I'm looking at an HD5450, which comes with passive cooling. So, how well would it work? What I'm basically interested is (@1680x1050 with a Core2Duo E8400 64bit/4G RAM):
KMS
suspend/resume
video playback without tearing
kwin effects
Any real world experiences?
Thanks!
