If you are running Gnome, select the Atlantis screensaver in GnomeCC.
Then press the lock button on your panel.  If the sharks are swimming
thru gravy, you don't have hardware acceleration.  If they shoot past,
you do.  There are several other GL screensavers in Helix Gnome and also 
in KDE2, I believe.  The difference between hardware and software
rendering is huge.
