I'd prefer it here, but I doubt USE flags matter much. |

Which drivers do you use, ati-drivers / fglrx or xf86-video-ati / radeon? |
24 |
Is the 3D performance okay? |

ATI: 3D is very good - a must for gaming, 2D is SLOW! (thou they did |
29 |
something about that with 10.6 - experience differs for users - its |
30 |
said that window management is fast now, but video still has tearing |
31 |
effect [also my exp.]) |
32 |
Latest driver (10.6) work with xorg-server-1.7.x only and kernel module |
33 |
has problems with >=2.6.34 (exp. differ). |
34 |
|
35 |
Xorg: 3D is basic and very slow but works (the newer the driver/server |
36 |
the better, development is VERY fast), 2D is a dream (very fast, no |
37 |
tearing with video)! |
38 |
Driver is released with Xorg - so work always with newest Xorg, kernel |
39 |
module is in-kernel - work always with newest kernel :) Driver supports |
40 |
both KMS and user space MS. |
41 |
|
42 |
I only use the ati-drivers, and 2D does not seem slow to me, but I cannot |
43 |
compare with the radeon driver, because the dammn thing never worked for |
44 |
me. |
