** Description changed: I have a PC with Ubuntu10.04 and video card S3 VT8375 [ProSavage8 KM266/KL266] and I'm trying to run some 3D games with at least a satisfactory performance, but I can not. I know that this chipset hasn't a good 3D support in Linux, but I did a test with Linux Mint Debian (LMDE) and the video came with a very acceptable performance, as this comparison: $ glxgears (On Ubuntu 10.04) 299 frames in 5.0 seconds 347 frames in 5.0 seconds 373 frames in 5.0 seconds 378 frames in 5.0 seconds $ glxgears (On LMDE) 1249 frames in 5.0 seconds 1147 frames in 5.0 seconds 1107 frames in 5.0 seconds 1278 frames in 5.0 seconds Furthermore, I discovered that Ubuntu doesn't use the correct driver for the card for 3D acceleration and do insist on doing software acceleration, which is slower than hardware acceleration: $ glxinfo | grep render (On Ubuntu) direct rendering: Yes OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer $ glxinfo | grep render (On LMDE) direct rendering: Yes OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI ProSavageDDR 20061110 AGP 1x x86/MMX/SSE2 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: xorg 1:7.5+5ubuntu1 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-27-generic i686 Architecture: i386 Date: Thu Jan 20 11:53:32 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release i386 (20100429) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=pt_BR:pt:en LANG=pt_BR.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: xorg Symptom: display system: distro: Ubuntu codename: lucid architecture: i686 kernel: 2.6.32-27-generic + --- + Architecture: i386 + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 + DkmsStatus: Error: [Errno 2] Arquivo ou diretório não encontrado + GdmLog1: Error: command ['gksu', '-D', 'Apport', '--', 'cat', '/var/log/gdm/:0.log.1'] failed with exit code 1: cat: /var/log/gdm/:0.log.1: No such file or directory + GdmLog2: Error: command ['gksu', '-D', 'Apport', '--', 'cat', '/var/log/gdm/:0.log.2'] failed with exit code 1: cat: /var/log/gdm/:0.log.2: No such file or directory + LiveMediaBuild: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release i386 (20100429) + Lsusb: + Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub + Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub + Bus 002 Device 002: ID 15d9:0a37 Dexon Mouse + Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub + Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub + Package: xserver-xorg-video-savage 1:2.3.1-1ubuntu1 + PackageArchitecture: i386 + ProcCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/casper/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/hostname.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz quiet splash -- locale=pt_BR console-setup/layoutcode?=br console-setup/modelcode?=abnt2 + ProcEnviron: + LANG=pt_BR.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-21.32-generic 2.6.32.11+drm33.2 + Tags: lucid lucid + Uname: Linux 2.6.32-21-generic i686 + UnreportableReason: This is not a genuine Ubuntu package + UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev sambashare + dmi.bios.date: 09/01/2004 + dmi.bios.vendor: Award Software International, Inc. + dmi.bios.version: F8 + dmi.board.name: P4M266A-8235 + dmi.chassis.type: 3 + dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAwardSoftwareInternational,Inc.:bvrF8:bd09/01/2004:svn:pn:pvr:rvn:rnP4M266A-8235:rvr:cvn:ct3:cvr: + system: + distro: Ubuntu + codename: lucid + architecture: i686 + kernel: 2.6.32-21-generic ** Attachment added: "BootDmesg.txt" https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/705464/+attachment/1852518/+files/BootDmesg.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-savage in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/705464 Title: Ubuntu 10.04 doesn't set hardware acceleration on ProSavageDDR video card _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
