Hello,

I have HP nx6125 notebook with 1400x1050 display and RADEON XPRESS
200M Series Generic card... I also have suse 10.1 and latest ati
8.27.10 driver...

Output from flxinfo is in attachment... 3D support is on, but
glxgears has terribly slow results.... It is known bug or something
else?

hlavki@hlavki:~> glxgears
1303 frames in 5.0 seconds = 260.491 FPS
1333 frames in 5.0 seconds = 266.582 FPS
1304 frames in 5.0 seconds = 260.789 FPS
1307 frames in 5.0 seconds = 261.328 FPS
[...]
thanks, m.

Michal,
You should instead be using fgl_glxgears to test for your 3D speed. As
another poster mentioned, glxgears is not a good test even if you were
not using the ATI drivers, but since you are, use the ATI supplied test
programs.

Also, there is a newer version of the drivers available. 8.28.x

regards,
Lee
