I'm running Debian unstable (with XFree86) on a ThinkPad R40. With my Radeon 7500, if I run the flipflop screensaver normally (with acceleration): /usr/lib/xscreensaver/flipflop the little tiles don't have the nice shadows on the edges which give it a nice 3D look, but it does run nice and fast (42fps by its own count). If i run it as: LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=true /usr/lib/xscreensaver/flipflop the rendering is much nicer with the proper shadows on the edges, so they look rectangular. The framerate is only 35fps then, and CPU usage greatly increases (since I guess it's software rendering). Am I missing something in my XFree86 config to let the accelerated 3D Radeon driver render this better? Here are the sections of my XF86Config-4 that look pertinent: Section "Module" Load "GLcore" Load "dbe" Load "dri" Load "extmod" Load "glx" ... EndSection Section "Device" Option "hw_cursor" Option "AGPMode" "4x" Option "AGPFastWrite" "true" Identifier "Card0" Driver "radeon" VendorName "All" BoardName "All" EndSection -- John M Flinchbaugh john@hjsoft.com
