Hi, About a year ago, you reported a bug to the Debian BTS regarding glxgears problems. Apart from the missing documentation, did you reproduce these problem recently? If not, I will close this bug in the next weeks. Thanks, Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Not in general. Just as one example, Cedega uses glxgears for this, but it incorrectly thinks that there's no hardware acceleration when sync-to-vblank is enabled. glxgears is a very simple program that demonstrates the use of GLX to display three rotating gears. Nothing less, but especially nothing more. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | Debian (powerpc), X and DRI developer Libre software enthusiast| http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer

Where is that documented (both the existence of the flag and that it is not for benchmarking)? $ man glxgears No manual entry for glxgears $ glxgears -h Warrning: unknown parameter: -h $ glxgears --help Warrning: unknown parameter: --help $ ls /usr/share/doc/mesa-utils changelog.Debian.gz copyright glxgears might not be a good benchmark but it is certainly a quite useful tool for quickly checking if a machine has 3D acceleration enabled or not.

This is a feature, it reminds people that glxgears is not a benchmark.

Bug#360064: mesa-utils: glxgears is broken
Package: mesa-utils Version: 6.3.2-1 Severity: normal Hi, I've upgraded to X.org 7.0 from experimental and I also installed the mesa-utils package since glxgears is no longer part of xbase-clients. But glxgears from mesa-utils seems to be broken: - When glxgears is first launched, the image is shifted left in the window (only the rightmost few cogs of the large red cogwheel are visible, everything left to it falls outside of the window) - If I switch destop & go back, the image appears at the right position (center of the window) for a split second and then jumps back to the previous position - If I move the window, the image appears at the center of the window, but as soon as the mouse leaves the glxgears window, the window goes completely blank Moreover glxgears from mesa-utils do not print any frame rates, so it's pretty useless.
