 Actually, wouldn't that still be progress? Currently, even when I move
 the xterm window, I can see flicker -- with Radeon9600 and Pentium at
 over 3GHz... Thanks!
 
 BTW, did anyone attempt to make the Linux driver work on FreeBSD? It
 seems to start for me, but I can't get the second head to work with
 it for some reason (it just stays off)...
