But 360 is lousy even for a M6 LY. The one in my A30 is as twice as
fast with glxgears and standard window size.

Did you check if glxgears shows direct rendering? What resolution do
you use? What colour depth? How much video memory? 16 MB memory wasn't
enough for 24 bit colour depth with 1400x1050, I had to downgrade to 16
bit depth to get hardware GL.
