The Mesa page is out of date - Dapper supports 3D acceleration with the
X300 chipset.
Oh wow, that i didn't realise. And indeed, a quick
'apt-get install planetpenguin-racer' confirms that it's definetely not s/w
rendering in operation. Kick ass.
glxgears won't always appear to be going terribly fast,
and it's not really a measure of anything other than the speed of
glxgears.
I know it's no use as a benchmark, but i didn't realise it could be as
misleading as this. I'll bear that in mind in future.
Thank you.
Steve
