(Resend) I've found 2 issues w/ the Radeon 7200 in Linux.
The first, I've seen with several other Radeons - 64mb DDR, 32mb DDR, 64mb SDR. In the left hand side of the screen, the mouse cursor will be extremely jumpy(or just not update on movement at all), I've found that setting sw_cursor fixes this. The Radeon 7200 DRI drivers work, but performance is a problem. I get roughly 1/2 to 1/3 the performance in linux than in windows. I've tried quake3 and unreal tournament. In Windows I get about 100fps in UT, as opposed to 40 or so in Linux. (Quake3 was even worse...) Linux glxgears only scores around 600fps. Has anyone experienced this or have a solution? Attached are portions of my XFree86 and kernel logs. ===== ---- This sentence contains exactly threee erors.
