Hi Davide, |
| 23 |
Can you better define 'decent video quality'? I've got a Radeon HD |
| 24 |
5770 on this system installed about 6 month ago. I do use a xorg.conf |
| 25 |
file. (xorg-server-1.9, machine is mostly stable + a few testing |
| 26 |
packages) I don't emerge radeon-ucode for my card. |

If I know what you're doing I can look here and compare. |
