Hi, I'm using the "ati" drivers (the xorg one) and I use some option to
enable a good accelaration :

1/ glxgears without DRI ~200fps
2/ with DRI enable ~900fps
3/ with Option "AGPMode" "4" ~1100fps
4/ with Option "EnablePageFlip" "on" > 2180fps
5/ others options are good by default or crash my X (APGFastWrite just
freeze X and/or input devices)

All that to say : read the man ! read the man ! read the man ! Your
driver have a man page (man radeon for me, with radeon9100 card), so read
it.

I know "glxgears is not a bench", but imho it's a simply way to perform
acceleration and frag on enemy territory

do not forget : read the man !
