  • r300g: Is it really accelerated?

    Last night, I upgraded my Ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10, reinstlled x-eggers and got latest xorg 7.10 dev code. I was running r300g on R520.

    To test sanity of the graphics stack, I fired up PTS and run lightmarks 2008. My score was 6.8 fps!

    I my have to ask, are those drivers really used 3D HW accerleration? I mean is one have to expect a lightmarks of just 6.8 fps?

    Am I doing something wrong?

        running HW accelerated driver, however, not seeing the HW performance.

          From the PTS report it looks as if you are booting an old kernel. For the rest it is hard to diagnose without seeing your log files. Try also with other applications than lightmarks.

            I am runing: Kernel: 2.6.35-020635rc6-generic (x86_64)

            This one of the latest RC kernel from mainline ppa. I will try other benchs too.

              The default maverick kernel is much newer You may also want to try the 2.6.36-RC kernel in the xorg-edgers maverick PPA.

                Sorry, my mistake, later tonight I will upgrade the kernel and try again.

                  You've got recent kernels drm-next in the ubuntu mainline kernel page.

                    Would be different from this one:



                    What does drm-next signify?
