Place these settings in your xorg.conf
:
The RADEON driver (man
radeon
) supports the following options for the RV280 chip (which is
found on RADEON 9200 boards). The default values are in red:
Option "AGPMode" "1"
(driver currently supports up to x4)Option "AGPFastWrite" "off"
(only used when DRI is enabled)Option "BusType" "AGP"
(if driver's bus type detection is wrong)Option "DisplayPriority" "AUTO"
(set to "BIOS"
or "HIGH"
to fix tearing)Option "EnablePageFlip" "off"
(turn "on"
3D page flipping for better performance)
The biggest wins would come from APGMode
and EnablePageFlip
. APGFastWrite
may
help DRI. DisplayPriority
may help KDE. Don't use BusType
unless the log shows the driver
has selected a PCI bus for the card...
Note:- when playing with Xorg 6.5 I got X crashes
with EnablePageFlip
turned on.
