amd64 lenny video 3D acceleration issues

2010-02-26 Thread Francesco Pietra 
Following a reinstall of amd64 lenny I am unable to get 3D
acceleration (which was working fine before), although every check is
positive:

france...@tya64:~$ grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf 21 |grep nvidia
  Driver nvidia

@
$ glxgears

it is as slow as on another machine i386 lenny without nvidia driver
and without acceleration. This confirms that 3D is not working.

Adding the line

option ForcePCIMode True

to /etc/X11/xorg.conf (section Device)
did not help, and was therefore removed.

Thanks for help

My machine seems to pass all the checks and when I run glxgears, I get
around 8700 FPS

 and without acceleration. This confirms that 3D is not working.

How slow? 60fps?
