Not sure whether this belongs here or the "Kernel & Hardware" forum...

I've recently upgraded *something* and noticed a sudden drop in my framerate. glxgears previously reported an average around 2,200 FPS, now it runs at 1650 FPS. To my knowledge, I've made no config setting changes that might have caused this.

I see no errors in my xorg log or dmesg that seem obviously related. The only message I've seen is in glxinfo:
Code:
libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b

I don't know if this is related.

I'm running a Radeon 9200 (8X AGP) with the following:
> gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r7 (now running 2.6.17 with same result)
> xorg-x11-7.1
> x11-drm-20060608
> opengl-7.0
> gnome-2.14.1

Kernel settings:
Code:
Character Devices -->
 /dev/agpgart
 . ATI chipset support
Graphics Support -->
 Support for framebuffer devices
 ATI Radeon display support

Relevant xorg.conf settings:
Code:
Section "Module"
    Load        "dbe"
    SubSection  "extmod"
        Option  "omit xfree86-dga"
    EndSubSection
    Load        "glx"
    Load        "dri"

Section "Device"
    Identifier   "Card0"
    Driver       "radeon"
    Option       "AGPMode" "4"
EndSection

Section "DRI"
   Mode 0666
EndSection

glxinfo output
