Agree on the graphs not been that hot. Having all those thin colored lines close together is hard on the eyes.

Never mind. Got it to work by disabling ST3C compression on driconf.

It would be nice to know if things have failed miserably or are not sufficiently different to even see a difference, too, you know: you even already have all the data.
Not showing the "bad" results boggles my mind.
You give the impression that everything at least works which is simply is not true.

It's quite a low level rather than a mid-range! (at its times I mean... nowadays it ain't even worth considering). ok, I bought it as a low budget transition card, but still...
The 3650 vs 3850 numbers seemed about right given the hardware differences.

To get any valuable information out of the mess that is, for example, the GL and XV video performance graphs, they should have been at least two times their size. It'd also be nice to have access to the numeric data in tabular form as an option. More often than not, I'd like to compare numbers instead of trying hard to figure out which shade of $colour represents which card?

Here is my own test (I wonder if the factor 5 in 3D performance is representative):

Why no comparison with fglrx? When 2d performance of the open source drivers are benched by Phoronix (an area in which the open source driver performs quite good compared to fglrx) the results are always compared with fglrx.
Now you are measuring 3d performance, which open source won't win from fglrx and you leave fglrx out. It would be nice to see how far off the open source driver stack is from the proprietary driver.
