2D Acceleration not used using ATI Rage Mobility P/M AGP 2x
Hi, I posted this on dri-users and have been suggested to post here... Everything starts fine with no errors (as you can see from the logs). The problem I have is that I don't think I have 2D acceleration. The simple test I do is to just drag a window on the screen... the redraw is extremely slow and the CPU is maxed out (only when I move the windows) This means (I guess) that I do not have 2D acceleration. You can actually see the redraw happening... really slow. To add to that, at the time I had windows 2000 server installed on that machine (Laptop Dell Latitude CPxj, now a Linux only system) the windows could be moved around really fast so it can't be a limitation of the hardware. CPU is a pentium 3 some 600Mhz - 512 MB memory - less than 200MB used by the system, no swap space used. I have also tried other colour depths as well as different screen resolutions (I think I tried all possible permutations): always with the same results. I finally tried Accel on and off with no apparent consequence (same speed) Thanks, Salvio # XFree86 4 configuration created by redhat-config-xfree86 Section ServerLayout Identifier Default Layout Screen 0 Screen0 0 0 InputDeviceMouse0 CorePointer InputDeviceKeyboard0 CoreKeyboard EndSection Section Files # RgbPath is the location of the RGB database.

[XFree86] 2D Acceleration not working (nor 3D)
I have installed Red Hat 9 on both a Latitude CPj and an Inspiron 5100. These are vanilla installations - none of the two has 2D acceleration (and no 3D either) I have tried the drivers found at xig.com on the Latitude with no success (installation was ok but no improvement). I have also tried dri.sourceforge.net without luck. Are my cards supported at all? On the Latitude: ATI Rage Mobility P/M AGP 2x (rev 64) On the Inspiron: Radeon 7500 (Mobility as well) Following are some more details on what I have on my Latitude (test system, I can mess around with it): XF86Config == ...
