It runs at (something like) 1120x1024 (on a 19" screen). 3D graphics works fine it seems - at least the 3D openGL screensavers did (euphoria was the one that usually 'stuck' if there was no 3d hardware acceleration, but it ran with no problems), and glxgears ran at 1500+ FPS. I saw no problem with the driver at all.
