oh one other thing then if it's a bug is that if i quickly expand the window size glxgears runs for a few seconds but the gears breakup into their componant polygons, triangles etc. and I guess i'd better be honest about this too before i noticed this but after i upgraded to 9.0 i had to rearrange my pci cards as i stopped using the onboard sound and started using an ens1371 and I had a pig of a time getting the combination of pci nic,pci sound and pci video working together without conflicts. although everything seems fine except this wierdness with the ati card.
[snip] The card does need to have a busmaster slot for 3D, so the card arrangement could play a role (wild, grasping for straws guess). You will pardon me if I do not try to recreate the problem on my computer because my desktop is cluttered with work in progress, and given that glheretic can hang my card, I rather suspect that glxgears might do the same thing:-)
