I just noticed that I do get the same messages when I run glxinfo and glxgears In fact glxgears seems quite slow: -> glxgears get fences failed: -1 param: 6, val: 0 300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.565 FPS 298 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.524 FPS 299 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.737 FPS 300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.884 FPS Also I finally can reproduce a strange thing that I see when I run ooimpress, namely as the mouse pointer moves from the original window where the application was run to another window, a portion of the original window is highlighted as if it were selected for copy? Not sure I am doing a good job at describing it. For instance the frames info I listed above cannot be seen on the window once I move the mouse pointer out of it because the entire window is highlighted; in my case with yellow color. Then I kill glxgears and scroll the xterm up and down to see the frames output from glxgears; always ~60 FPS. Shouldn't I be getting a lot more? I wonder whether I should reemerge mesa?
