The upgarde (4.1 -> 4.2) which appeared to be working didn't survive a reboot. This is on a Sony Vaio U1 sub notebook with a Radeon Mobility.
All aspects of 2d and 3d performance were considerably degraded. There was noticable shearing when moving windows and glxgears reported a frame rate of about 1/2 what it used to. The problem appeared to be *something* that was periodically (every second or so) slowing everything down drastically .. glxgears was noticabely jumpy, they'd spin fine for a second and then glitch, reducing the overall frame rate substantially. DVD playback was in slow motion. I cleaned out the installation and re-installed 4.2 .. this time everything looked much better and was demonstrably much faster .. but now the X server refuses to shut down properly, requiring several alt backspaces to get me back to the shell prompt. I'm going to re-install 4.1 sjb _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
