Re: XF86Config-4 fixes for glxgears

Hi

How does your glxgears or opengl games behave in the fullscreen mode?

I have noticed previously that even though the glxgears game me a good
performance, the games ran horribly slow without the proprietary fglrx
driver.

Can people give me some ideas from their experience using the radeon
driver shipped with Xfree/Xorg.

As far as i remember from the XFree86.log file the radeon drivers do
not
support 3D acceleration and DRI in the the higher-end cards, such as
9600 and above. Is that still the case?

The free drivers support up to 9200, 9200E, 9250. High rnd cards are only supported in 2D, for 3D, you need the propretary drivers.

I've tested with both a 9250 and 9500.
fglrx are needed for the 9500 to get the 3D acceleration.



Many thanks for your help

Andrei
