Do you have XVideo working (you may check it using "xvinfo" command)? If your video playback is smooth, I suppose you have it. R600 have only textured Xv, therefore it needs accelerated OpenGL working also. Recompiling driver isn't enough for that, you'd need the latest Mesa and latest DRM (direct rendering manager) module for Radeons. The latter contains blobs. It located either in Linux (starting from 2.6.32) or in Mesa/Xorg. 3D acceleration wouldn't work on R600 with deblobbed software. If you have accelerated 3D working (it could be checked seeing "glxinfo | grep OpenGL" output) then your system is using ATI blobs. -- Regards, Dmitry Samoyloff _______________________________________________ gNewSense-users mailing list gNewSense-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-users
