Does the VESA driver exhibit the same behaviour? (Change from nv to
vesa in xorg.conf.)

Hi folks,
I've just install 8.10 on my parents old computer. The only graphics
card is an old Nvidia card. When I use the 'nv' driver the resolution is
the standard 1023x768 but the screen is split in half , with the top of
the screen down the bottom of the monitor and the bottom up the top

Well, not too much of a slow coach really :)
With the Free/Open radeon driver these cards can do around 840 fps plus
in "glxgears", and run compiz fusion quite nicely inclu

F-Spot is a 2D image viewer. It does not use textures. You are

This accelerates drawing pixels
Yes, but what about texture compression?
And accelerated direct rendering in 2d?
For example Ive noticed a good improvement with mplayer using xv
instead of x11 as an output driver
If you have sourcs for further reference Im generally interested, thanks

You appear not to be familiar with exactly what "2D acceleration" is,
how generic it is, and how little it has to do with the actual

The Free Software drivers for both NVIDIA and ATI cards support full 2D
acceleration. I've used this driver for quite some time on my very
low-end ATI card (a AU$38 Radeon X300SE) and have perfectly acceptable

I would disagree here. For display photographic images, almost no work is
being done by the graphics card. Any basic card running as a frame buffer
(with say 8MB) wouldn't perform much different from the 512MB card that
seems to be standard. It is really only in 3D games or 3D display managers

Thank you all for your attention. You can see, no doubt, what a
sheltered life I have led.
The video card I am using is an Model: RADEON 9250. Chipset RADEON 9200
Series AGP (0x5960). It has a DVI port! I'll connect that to see what
happens . . . and will let you know in just a little while.
The Samsung SyncMaster 205BW has a native resolution of 1680 x 1050 pixels
It has both Analogue and DVI ports.
Modern graphics cards have both Analogue and DVI ports.
If using DVI ports, all adjustments to the monitor are automatic via the
graphics card driver.
If using Analogue ports, monitor

Sorry Null, I have a jargon problem. What does "native" resolution
mean in this context?
The GUI offers a selection of from 1680x1050 to 720x400. Upon

Are you running your monitor at its native resolution in Ubuntu?

At issue is my Samsung SyncMaster 205bw (lcd) monitor.
