Matthias, what about old bug about "lost of sync" effect on notebook
panel ? 

It still happens time-to-time for my X1400 with
xf86-video-radeonhd-1.2.4_1.

As well as strange effect with mouse cursor - sometimes mouse cursor
starts to shake or blink on some areas of screen, then it passes.

And last question: why output naming is different between radeon and
radeonhd drivers ? 

It is a bit hard to use one Xorg configuration (dual-head setup) and
switch drivers.

As for 3D, it works for me good enough, but I have no GL-games, just
applications like google picasa and stellarium.

Bug google-earth - still does not work (I have FreeBSD, so it tries to
run under Linux emulation).
