frames per second. Is that normal, considering that full screen is
1400x1050, or should I be able to get more than that? If so, any
pointers to more information on how to do it?


First, you should see if AGP is running. Try something like this:

$ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status
Status:          Enabled
Driver:          NVIDIA
AGP Rate:        4x
Fast Writes:     Disabled
SBA:             Disabled

Of course you'll have no "nvidia" but if you're using the ATI agp, you should have something similar.

No, there is nothing similar for either the XFree86 DRM ATI drivers, or ATI's themselves.


Best I can think of is to look through your dmesg output for agpgart's output.
