Very poor performances with RV350 and Jaunty
Hello,
I'm testing KMS packages under Jaunty (and yes, I read the disclaimer...) and I get very poor performances. With Compiz the system is unusable and with Metacity is quite slow (slowness is well noticeable on resizing and moving windows).
To make things work I had to install packages from radeon-kms PPA (of course) and upgrade xorg and mesa to Karmic; with only KMS packages or with radeon-kms and xorg-edgers packages I get console working, but xorg fails to start ("failed to allocate fb").
Everything works good with KMS live 0.14 (boot from usb).
How can I solve this issue? Thanks
