Okay, I know I could have mailed this to ssxpro - he's asked about it in the past - but I thought I'd post it here for everyone else too.
I watched a DVD on my PS2 last night for the first time since watching The Matrix on it last November. The reason being that I have a dedicated DVD player.
Anyway, I borrowed the Region 1 version of Natural Born Killers from a friend (FatButcher), and so had to watch it on my PS2.
So... I was using both Region X and the official 2.10 drivers supplied with the remote. And it worked perfectly well. No compatability problems and, more importantly, no lip-sync problems at all in 2 hours of movie. No need to access the self-diagnostic mode, no need to pause and restart, and picture quality that was pretty close to my £750 dedicated player.
Hope that answers all of your questions! :-)

Thanks for that Wookiee! That settles it. I`ll order the region x from SR soon, and take a look around for decent scart cables.
On the lip-sync though, it could just be your console that doesn`t have any problems, mine only seems to be alright if I use the official remote, and the diagnosis mode together. Still, as long as I remember, its fine.
btw... risky tag line that... but funny all the same.
