Well, not too much of a slow coach really :)
With the Free/Open radeon driver these cards can do around 840 fps plus
in "glxgears", and run compiz fusion quite nicely including cube etc.
$ lspci | grep -i vga
0000:00:10.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M9+ 5C63
[Radeon Mobility 9200 (AGP)] (rev 01)
I would think the Radeon 9250 is similar?
Out of the box on Hardy here (iBook G4 12" 1.2 GHz, 768 MB RAM):
4270 frames in 5.0 seconds = 853.855 FPS
4275 frames in 5.0 seconds = 854.882 FPS
4188 frames in 5.0 seconds = 837.460 FPS
4222 frames in 5.0 seconds = 844.330 FPS
Not too shabby, for an old cheapy :)
(Yes, I know that glxgears "is not a benchmark" ;-) But
planetpenguin-racer works smoothly and compiz fusion is fine)
