[ltp] X.org X11R6.8 on t40p? (Radeon R250 / Radeon Mobility 9000)

[Steve Krulewitz]

Hey all --

Has anyone tried the new X11R6.8 release from X.org on their Thinkpad 
yet?  I have it running, but when I turn on composite mode with the eye 
candy (drop shadows, transparency) things move very slow.  The log 
reports that DRI is working, so I'm not sure what the problem might be. 
  The videocard section from my xorg.conf is simply:

Section "Device"
     Identifier  "Videocard2"
     Driver      "radeon"
     Option "RenderAccel" "On"
     Option "AGPFastWrite" "On"
     Option "EnablePageFlip" "On"
EndSection

Anyone having better luck than I am?

cheers,
-steve
