I wonder if turning off acceleration changes anything to him.

Fedora-17-Alpha-i686-Live-Desktop.iso (RC2) on USB
2.13GHz AthlonXP 2600+ / RV200 (Radeon 7500) / 1280x1024
Fallback mode is fine, but once the shell starts, it's a battle just to
get System Monitor open and to the Resources tab. Once there, the CPU
sits at 100% until I get off that tab. Very high latency, screen
flickering, artifacts, incomplete rendering...
Turned it down to 1024x768, no help.
I also tried a couple of other oldies...
2.2GHz Pentium 4 / i845G / 1024x768
The shell does come up and work, but requires a lot of patience to do
anything. Scrolling and dragging are jerky and painful. System Monitor
CPU at 97%+ continuously.
1.6GHz Pentium M / RV250 (FireGL 9000) / 1024x768
Slightly better than i845G.
"NoAccel" had no noticeable effect.
For comparison:
3,2GHz Pentium 4 (HT Disabled) / Gallium 0.4 on ATI RV370 / 1680x1050
Fine. System Monitor CPU at 19%.
