Thanks for testing! Please make sure you try the latest pageflipping patches I posted last night: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2010-October/005042.html I've also updated put the latest patches here: http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/pflip/ They work much better on r1xx-r5xx asics.
