7 I have a ThinkPad lenovo R500 running the latest GENTOO.

9 Here is what I found so far.
10
11 Everything works, but I have 2 problems:
12 1) OpenGL screen saver do not works
13 2) Graphic is not very fast.
14
15 I think the first problem is related to the second one.
16
17 I think (but I'm not sure) that the source of my problem is this:
18
19 xxxx@localhost ~ $ glxinfo | grep renderer
20 OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer
21
22 However,
23
24 xxxx@localhost ~ $ glxinfo | grep direct
25 direct rendering: Yes
26
27 xxxx@localhost ~ $ dmesg | grep -i agp

34 Can someone give me some hint about what to do/what to check?
35
