1 I think I just found the problem! I decided to give the open source ATI
2 drivers a try again, and replaced 'fglrx' by 'radeon' in my xorg.conf. And
3 all is fast now. Wow. I had already forgotten how fast a desktop should
4 be.

6 I'm not yet sure all is fine. On the first start, kwin crashed and all
7 windows were on the first desktop, this never happened before. But it's
8 working on the second login. I have no direct rendering, Xorg.0.log shows
9 (EE) RADEON(0): [dri] RADEONDRIGetVersion failed (libdri too old). I had
10 this before with xorg-server-1.7.7, now I'm emerging 1.8.2. Stay tuned.
