Radeon rv610 (2400HD-Pro card) question

[Gene Heskett]

Greetings;

Since it appears nvidia is not supporting the econo cards in the supply
pipeline, cards like the 8400 GS I just bought 2 of, I got the bright idea 
to swap it out for an old radeon 2400HD-Pro card I had on the shelf.  So I 
built a 3.13.1 32 bit kernel and rebooted after changing teh card.

Color is nice, looks like a higher gamma setting.  But video speed is just 
as bad and the audio was about 1.5 MINUTES behind the video, as the nvidia 
card I took out on the news sites, so I toddled over to youtube to see.  
Video played at about 2x normal speeds, and the audio was still 1 minutes 
and change after the video.

I've see stuff out of sync before, but over a minute?

Called up synaptic & found there were some codecs I didn't have, so I 
installed those, BUT another kernel rebuild reports:

now making a new /boot/initrd.3.13.1.img
