Here, I get (with an X22 / 800 MHz / 1024x768 / 16 bit / Ubuntu Breezy)
FPS in the 20s (plus or minus depending on how much stuff is on the
screen) on my old X22 using "ppracer" - the replacement for tuxracer.  

Helios seems to run fine, though not quite as fast as it does on my X31.

Ubuntu Breezy comes with xorg version 6.8.2.

24-bit mode will disable hardware 3D acceleration entirely here (not
enough video memory on the X22).
