I have an ATI Radeon Mobility 9200 M9+ and i got 3D acceleration by
compiling Mesa and DRM modules.
Anyway Xorg is slow when i drag a transparent window and very slow with
3D screensavers. I can run XGL but it's really slow and i hasn't direct
rendering.
Here i post some interesting things about my mac to solve the problem.
It's an ibook G4 12".

An observation is that glxgears only gets 800 FPS if I use radeon on my
xorg.conf.
I commented about Xgl that it don't get direct rendering and I think
that it could be because it works over Xorg and Xorg don't work with
DRI. Could I solve the problem compiling Xorg with someone parameter?
Thank you very much for your answers.
