Well, I play UT2K4 here and it works. It ain't super-blazing (1,6GHz, |
| 9 |
512MB RAM, 128MB-Graphics-RAM so can't be too good for such hungry |
| 10 |
games) but playable without any problems. |

What do you mean by "heavy 3D"? Hardware-accelerated image-rendering |
| 15 |
or games? I'm happy with 250FPS in Quake3Arena to be honest. |

I don't say you have to but if I were you I would: |
| 27 |
- - update the xorg to 7.X |
| 28 |
- - build agpgart for your chipset into the kernel |
| 29 |
- - build the DRM for the ATI Radeon into the kernel |
| 30 |
- - configure xorg to use the "radeon"-driver (This is not just changing |
| 31 |
one line, you will have to reconfigure the whole section because the |
| 32 |
different drivers use different parameters) |
