Attached is spreadsheet giving results from Radeon Mobility 7500 GtkPerf from
Jaunty, Vesa, default (no modeset), radeon.modeset=1.

The modeset=1 was re-run with yesterday's updates. Modeset=1 was 24% slower than Vesa. Will try today's updates when time permits. Since I'm just a user (customer) seems to me Vesa would be better to use than the driver with "accelerations".

Today's karmic update might be 2.6.31-3 however boot hangs after samba on the i845 ThinkCentre so I'm not sure the update is ready yet.

Subsequent attachments will be lspci -vvnn, Xorg.0.log, dmesg.

Thanks, Jerry
