My i810 will only work on 16 bit depth, so maybe your in another
depth.  Also, try glxgears to test it .. should be about 100 fps
normally and 300+ when accelerated.

It might also help to display your actual XFree86 and the glxinfo and
glxgears output.

BTW, my impression is that 16 bit depth gives up too much resolution
for me to use it for normal use.  So, if not playing games, I'm back
to 24 bit depth.
