Hi,
Well, 3D worked okay in Ubuntu 9.04, but Karmic 9.10 (beta) seems to not want to start Compiz except for the first installation run, or play Alien Arena 7.0.1. in anything other than 1024x768 with poor performance, though my native screen size is 1650x1080 and this graphic's card can do much better.
The console command compiz returns "Xgl not found" and then some, and then a system freeze. So I can't copy-paste the whole thing.
I've upgraded to Mesa 7.6.1 stable PPA to no effect, positive or negative. Video rendering is quite good on Youtube. I also get excellent performance from the 3D screensavers. Glxgears sees the r420 spew out 3600 fps.
So I'm a bit mystified as to what's going on, though understandably I'm still on a beta 'buntu.
Hardware:
All-in-Wonder X800XT 256MB
AMD Athlon 2600XP @1.9GHz
1.5 GB DDR @ 333 MHz
Asus A7N8X mobo
