I have installed xfree86 4.4.0 rc1 on my laptop (an acer 1455LMi_ATI, with an
AMD 600+cou, 512MB ram, and rdeon 9200 graphics). I am getting about 1000FPS
on glxgears. I would expect more. Also there are some glitches( hesitations,
and uneven display). What is the state of the driver? Is
Are these patches included in the snapshot 4.4.0rc1 aka 4.3.99.901 and what
should they do if you set the option.

You found that quickly. I don't know what the chipset is. How can I figure

tried tust the via-agp module and got the same problem. I looked again and the

It always works if you watch it close enough. Actually I changed kernel to the
2.6.0-test11 that just came out. I kept the old configuration except I compiled
agpgart as a module instead of being built into the kernel. now glxinfo says
it's doing direct rendering!! glxgears gives about 1000 FPS

Thanks. I don't get to test it until the laptop with radeon mobility 9200
comes next week. I understand the 9200 is the same as the 9000 except that the
agp is 8x instead of 4x. Can I specify agp 8x to take advantage of the higher
speed?
Thanks again,

I signed onto the developer list too now. When the computer comes, I am
thinking of trying driver snapshots or CVS versions. I have heard that ATI does
not support their own driver very well.
Thanks again,

Where do I find the kernel patch for agp x8? I saw in a posting elsewhere that
kernel 2.4.22 may support agp x8.

Another question. Can you specify agp 8x for the radeon 9200
