I had this computer about 12 years and it works very good still. I didn't have 
problem with slow Krita before but now is not the same. IMO all graphics 
programs are more "hungry" for better gr. cards but GIM works still very good.
I have ati native drivers, I have dr/drm installed but I don't use xorg.conf 
and it works.
I ran "glxgears -info in the small size windows and I got:
