Just tested Asus X550 on Asus A8V-XE motherboard with Sempron 3000.Return To Castle Wolfenstein and NeverBall work perfectly stable and very fast.I had problems with starting Doom3, will work on it later.
I was expecting problems with DRI - there are none. Real problems are with sata support for this motherboard :)-- Free Software - find interesting programs and change themNetHack - meet interesting creatures, kill them and eat their bodies

I tried the same settings (1024x768 with all advanced options disabled)
and got 9.4 FPS this time.  So I'm getting closer.

I actually have a 9800 from work that I can bring home and try with over
the weekend, hopefully, just to see if that makes a difference.

Sorry, but not here it doesn't.

I updated my drivers from CVS on August 29th and have just run demo1. 
800x600 resolution, lowest quality video settings, arb renderer, on a
dual 2.8 gig xeon with a gig of RAM.  The demo averaged 5.6 FPS.

Have you run demo1?  What's your system configuration?  Made any changes

This doesn't even work with full raster fallbacks in r300.

I should have fixed this two weeks ago, isn't that working for you?
Maybe you're hitting 'new driver needs new libGL' due to Ian's dispatch

The only real stability problems I've had with the r200 driver recently
is when I have multiple GL contexts running, and one of them goes beyond
the 2048x2048 hardware limit (in terms of location, not size).  So, for
example, when running a mergedfb setup at 2560x2048 and having GL
screensavers running on both heads.  I have no problems playing doom3 or
quake4 for hours on end with the r200 driver and it is significantly
faster than with the r300 driver.

Having said that, there's such progress being made on the r300 driver
that I rarely switch back to my9000Pro unless I really need to for some
reason.

While the r300 driver has, indeed, come a long way, I'm hesitant to callit the best OpenGL implementation I've ever seen.  As of July, the r200
driver still out performed the r300 driver at nearly every OpenGLapplication and game on my system.  But the problem is that r200 is not stable (at least on my system) which makes it unusable. It's very annoying when you want to play Enemy Territory for few hours or create something in complex Blender, and then see a crashed system.
I've noticed that performance drops when software changes OpenGL states too often. I am not sure how it works on other drivers/implementations.

While the r300 driver has, indeed, come a long way, I'm hesitant to call
it the best OpenGL implementation I've ever seen.  As of July, the r200
driver still out performed the r300 driver at nearly every OpenGL
application and game on my system.  I do agree with your assessment that
the r300 driver is much more stable than most of the other open source
drivers, however.

This implies that glest is getting an indirect rendering context.  Could
you debug that a bit more?  It seems like it should get a direct
rendering context.
