Hi Matthias. Yes, I can confirm that the radeon driver works normally with RS600. And even more with the last kernel 2.6.32 the glgears results have been tripled. (Now I'm getting 1300 fps versus ~300fp before) Additionally, some sudden weird artefacts like sudden minor glitches (in mrxvt for example) have vanished too. I saw people report similar issues for the radeonhd, thus maybe it would be interesting for you. Thanks for your comments, if you need any help with testing in future, I would be happy to help. All the best, Dmitriy 2009/10/13 Matthias Hopf :

Bad news for you: I have the same card as you, Radeon Xpress 1250, chipset RS600, on a Samsung laptop too. 2D acceleration is not supported yet for our chipset. Try: Option "AccelMethod" "shadowfb" , or just keep using driver xf86-video-ati till future releases.

The description sounded as if not only acceleration didn't work, but rather the panel was blooming. Which is a no-no.

If the panel isn't working correctly, better stay with the radeon driver, at least until we have found the issue, which could take a while.
