Well, it's like this:

The top of the line is Radeon X1900,X1950 that you can run pretty
flawlessly with free software support. I've always tracked the latest
card that has free software support. Before this card, it was the
9200, 9250 and before that it was the matrox g400, g550.

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.
