Re: 3d hardware acceleration no longer works after upgrade to squeeze.

Dear all,
After I upgraded from lenny to squeeze this week, it seems that 3d
hardware acceleration no longer works for me. This is because games
like tuxracer and armagetronad no longer work properly. They are very
slow and bitmaps are missing when running armagetronad. The program
glxinfo reports "direct rendering: Yes", though. The program lspci
reports that I have a radeon 9200 SE video card. dmesg was reporting
that it could not load the radeon firmware, so I installed the
firmware-linux package and now it no longer gives the error. But this
does not help for the problem that the 3d acceleration is not working.
Anyone any idea what I can try next?
All the best,
Chris
Hi,
I also have radeon 9200 SE and Squezze (without firmware-linux, just
X.Org X server
-- ATI display driver, no errors in dmesg).
$ glxinfo
direct rendering: Yes
$ glxgears
529 frames in 5.0 seconds = 105.597 FPS
504 frames in 5.0 seconds = 100.765 FPS
526 frames in 5.0 seconds = 105.063 FPS
494 frames in 5.0 seconds = 98.778 FPS
512 frames in 5.0 seconds = 102.384 FPS
516 frames in 5.0 seconds = 103.167 FPS
518 frames in 5.0 seconds = 103.505 FPS
525 frames in 5.0 seconds = 104.833 FPS
528 frames in 5.0 seconds = 105.439 FPS
I am install extreme tux racer and could start the game. On the screen
are some ugly colored lines (like on TV when there is not any program).
Is it possible that is something wrong with the game?
Armagetronad-works
Balazar 3 3D-works (maybe little slow and crash when I click preferances)
Blob and Conquer-start but don't see anything accept weapons, granades
and black screen
BZFlag 3D-works
Egoboo-same as extreme tux racer
Enemylines3 3D-works
Tray some other 3D games, maybe they work
