I'm glad you're doing these benchmarks. Timing people makes them want to try harder. I haven't noticed any bad regressions in ubuntu yet, but the only way to get performance right is to always be...

Well I did try the driver using the ATI installer and that gave the same result. Is the driver working on other distros with the same card?

I have an X1300 and I can't get these new drivers to work at all. I only have kdm as a window manager, so I can't test with anything minimalistic, but it shouldn't make a difference, should it? When...

Excellent, my lack of x-video is now history.

One thing I don't get about ATI is that they gradually drop support for older drivers. So if you have a card that's a few years old and you want to...

Not really, I don't know any of those games, I tried installing Enemy Territory, but I couldn't figure out how to play it, I kept getting disconnected from the server. I was playing it at 1024x786...

Alright, I re-ran the same benchmarks on SUSE and here are the results. I have longer reports from every report as well if you need those.


3dsmax-04 Weighted Geometric Mean = 4.185

They are from gentoo. I'll run the suite on SUSE to compare.

No, SUSE ships with xorg 6.9.

Alright, I ran SPECViewperf and it tends to lock up X. These are the results I have from benchmarks that ran to completion:

I've been driving myself nuts trying to verify/fix my issues with a X1300 card (Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop). I don't know much about these things, but I have it working now partially. glxgears gives...
