Well. my 9200 agp (also RV280 based) works pretty well with the xorg- driver-ati with glxgears speeds as follows.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ glxgears 4216 frames in 5.0 seconds = 843.149 FPS 4181 frames in 5.0 seconds = 836.126 FPS 4258 frames in 5.0 seconds = 851.485 FPS 4236 frames in 5.0 seconds = 847.128 FPS 4143 frames in 5.0 seconds = 828.557 FPS Google Earth, and the Feisty GL Desktop (Desktop Effects) all work smoothly as well as streaming video and DVD playback. I'm not a gamer so it's sufficient for my uses. If you get the sound issues sorted out, and depending on your needs, I'd have to say yes. -- Cannot boot when video adapter set as PCI in BIOS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128421 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
