Description of problem: ATI X1650 Video Card does not work in 3D with no acceleration and glxinfo reports using software rasteriser. Reverting to previous kernel and both drivers work in 3D with hardware acceleration. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3D does NOT work with kernel-2.6.27.7-134.fc10.i686 3D does work with kernel kernel-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686 using "nomodeset" makes no difference How reproducible: consistently.

Brian, Could you please post both : dmesg and Xorg.0.log from 2.6.27.5-117 dmesg and Xorg.0.log from 2.6.27.7-134 All four as uncompressed text attachments to that bug. Does this still happen with 2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10 ? Thanks
Hi, I dont have the older kernels anymore so I cant post those outputs. However, for interest, with the latest kernel ((2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.i686)), and latest xorg-ati driver (xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.10.0-2.fc10.i386) that everything works, except for one noticeable aspect. starting with "nomodeset", X is snappy in 2D (metacity) and 3D (compiz). starting with "quiet rhgb", the pretty voot screen comes up, but X is a tad laggy in 2D, and very laggy in 3D. Clearly kernel modesetting is interfering here somehow.
Brian, Thanks for letting us know. As for the performance aspect of things, you might want to join a happy band at bug 470346 for instance. This particular bug was fixed and a update package was published for download. Please feel free to report any further bugs you find.
