	I am having the same problem with my PowerBook G4. glxinfo says direct 
rendering is yes, but acceleration is awful. In dapper acceleration was 
great, I could even run 3ddesktop & chromium.

	When you run glxinfo, are you getting the error "libGL warning: 3D driver 
claims to not support visual 0x4b"? I believe this is the real problem but I 
haven't been able to find an answer on google.
