that is normal. If you use Xgl, direct rendering does not work - and indirect |
| 10 |
rendering is dead slow. |

One workaround, start a second X: |
| 13 |
xinit -e xterm -- :1& |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
there you can start any game you want - it won't be slower and you can switch |
| 16 |
between the xgl -desktop and the game. |
