When I said I enabled it, I didn't mean I made it work well. :-) Somehow, the settings had defaulted to the plain Radeon selection, and I needed to select one of the settings below that one, and in the process enabled 3D, which had been totally disabled (why, I don't know) for some reason. 3D on this laptop is slow at best, but without it "enabled" there's nothing at all. As to how to "tweak" it to perform well, I've not taken a look at that yet. At the moment, I'm struggling with getting things straightened out after the latest round of cooker updates, in which KDE went to 3.2.1. and Gnome went up a version, etc., so much to get resorted out. :-) > > ______________________________________________________________________ > ____________________________________________________ > Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? > Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com > Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com > ____________________________________________________ -- Chuck Mattsen / [EMAIL PROTECTED] / RLU #346519 Mandrakelinux release 10.1 (Cooker) for i586 kernel 2.6.3-4mdk 00:35:37 up 2:27, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 A pessimist complains about the noise when opportunity knocks.
