Radeon x1650 here as well. Works with the open source radeonhd driver just
fine, with a single 26" monitor. (Even though the card is dual head.)
Resolution's good, and no tearing (anymore), after a few basic tweaks.

This is with a freshly baked Debian Lenny 5 RT kernel compiled from vanilla,
with Ingo's patches, still warm out of the oven.
