Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
In Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS I have acceptable 3d acceleration with my video card (ATI RS690M Radeon X1200 Series): compiz works (I can see the 3d cube, glxgears works well, etc.), but some 3d applications are really slow (Google Earth). I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on a separate partition (And reinstalled 2 times more with the same result). On Maverick, I have serious problems: as you can see in glxinfo (I hope that ubuntu-bug attached it), the 3d acceleration is marked as working well (direct rendering: Yes). But if I execute glxgears, the gears are not shown (just a black window, but sometimes just after a boot I can see the gears moving for < 1 second and then they don't move any more). Compiz is so slow that if I enable it and try to change my workspace (CTRL+ALT+[left/right arrow], with the "wall" default effect), the computer doesn't respond any more and I have to restart gdm (CTRL+ALT+F1, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart). In can't use any other application that needs 3d acceleration (Stellarium for example). I tried to use the development drivers (https://launchpad.net/~xorg- edgers/+archive/ppa , https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates) but I obtained almost the same result with them (so I returned to the default drivers). I can not understand why in Lucid the drivers simply worked well and in Maverick, a newer release, they don't. Thank you in advance. P. S.: Is this the right place to report this bug? Or I have to report to X.org? Kernel.org? Thank you.
