   A lot better in Ubuntu than ATI IMO (despite this hiccup) - a brief   
   google will show you that ATI cards are notoriously difficult to get   
   working properly in certain flavours of Linux. I never looked back after   
   moving to NVidia - have a brilliant dual screen (lcd/tv) setup which is   
   *much* better than the Windows Media Edition equivalent.
