I've done some quick (read slow) testing with extremetuxracer and I get (drum roll please) less than 3.0 FPS. That's right, it's usually around 2.6 or 2.7, but did max out at 3.0 just once (in about 10 seconds of fooling around, but it was clear things weren't about to get any better). Other information people have asked me to gather includes: [rodd@mythtv ~]$ glxinfo | grep -i direct direct rendering: Yes [rodd@mythtv ~]$ xdriinfo Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0". Screen 0: not direct rendering capable. [rodd@mythtv ~]$ It appears that glxinfo and xdriinfo can't quite agree. I couldn't find teapot to run it. Rodd -- "It's a fine line between denial and faith.
