| Hi, I have a huge problem with [b]ATI Radeon 7000[/b] and VectorLinux5.
|
| The thing is, the Google Documents are running too slow in Firefox
| browser.
|
| According to this:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/95078/comments/19
...the problem can be solved by enabling [b]XV overlay[/b]. To do that
my video card must run fully accelerated. ATI proprietary driver FGLRX
driver won't work with this card, it's too old.
|
| So I tryed installing [b]DRI[/b]. I followed the guidelines from DRI
project website (see http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building).
Everything seemed to bee alright, I was able to run [b]driconf[/b] tool.
|
| I tryed running [b]glxgears[/b], just to see the increase in video card
| perforemance but there  wasn't any increase at all. I got 390fps, before
| instaling DRI I had the same value. Google Documents were still very
| very slow in Firefox.
|
| I turned of the 3D acceleration in driconf and the perforemance in
| glxgears was not 380 - 390fps, but only 50fps + the picture was all
| messed up. So I think, that DRI worked correctly and it worked even
| without installing it, it was in the system all the time, without
| knowing it.
|
| Any of you had the same or similar problem? I found a partial solution.
| Google Documents are running a little better under Swiftfox.
|
| PS: The card is PCI, PC has two P3-800.
|
It seems that Google has been updating thier pages (im guessing they are
updating API for new firefox. We saw this in Gmail so far but im not so
sure this will fix the bug.
