I'm not seeing swrast at all, but I am quite disappointed in the nouveau performance. For glxgears, it get about 250 frames/sec. On the same HW using a very old nvidia proprietary driver I get about 8700 fps. glxgears may not be a great benchmark, but a 35-1 speed ratio means something. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
