I'm not far off from the above list, but it's still WAY TOO slow. The FX 5300 chipset is able to do a LOT more than that!!
glxgears is not meant to be used as a benchmark, it's only a quick way of seeing if you have 3d acceleration active at all. You really can't use those FPS numbers as a measurement of how fast your card is
We know that, but it's worded somewhat in the past so that the user would have an idea how well a driver was working.

That isn't the problem......games that used to run without "jerking" now don't. The driver simply ISN'T as good as it should be. Fred -- MickySoft, the ultimate corporate parasite.
