This year, I've gotten the opportunity to put Debian on a Sunblade

Debian, it seems awfully sluggish.
Another example: running "glxgears" only shows a frame rate of 26 to 44 FPS.
GL isn't a good comparison, since it relies on video hardware, not the
CPU (unless of course you are running it as software-GL).
Yeah, I wasn't too reliant on the GL numbers, but still 44 seems awfully
slow to me. I've tried using both the ATI driver and the fbdev driver
for xfree86, and I've tried both the with framebuffer and without
option; the only thing that changes is that it locks up the machine hard
forcing a power cycle to recover.
But as mentioned in previous posts, even console-based activities seem
sluggish. Do this info look right?
