Re: ATI radeon 9200, 2.6 kernel, xfree 4.3 - but still bad performance (dri failing?)

I have also a 9200 radeon with xfree4.3. The fact is, that the 9200 chipset is not supported by XFree4.3's 'radeon' driver.
This is what I see when I try to load that driver:

(...)

ATI Radeon 9000 If (AGP), ATI Radeon 9000 Ig (AGP),

This seems a little bit strange to me. If I look through the X logfiles
the Radeon 9200 is expicitly mentioned:

I'm using the Xfree86 4.3 from experimental. But as I mentioned earlier I own a HP nx7000 (I think it's sold as x1000 in America) an it's Ati Mobility Radeon 9200 is said to be a plain 9000. So this could be the reason that XFree86 4.3 is sufficient for me.
