This week I updated from 10.0-RELEASE using vesa driver direct to 10.1-RELE= ASE,then pkg upgrade WITH_NEW_XORG and GALLIUM; and then Xorg -configure po= inted me at the radeon driver.(the firmware picked up with radeonkms is ARU= BA by the way.) I use a program called stellarium (the night sky in planetarium type projec= tions.) When I ran 10.0 with the old xorg packages, and vesa driver, the sky was dr= awn correctly at about 2 fps; Now run X in 10.1 with the vesa driver (but a= ll the updated release software packages), the sky is drawn correctly (at 1= 5 fps); If I run it in 10.1 with radeon driver, the stars and planets in the sky ar= e all dark, though lines and legends drawn ok. i.e. identical software, except the driver.=C2=A0 Different graphics! I'm guessing, that it's in the 'shaders', but I sure hope it's something th= at will be scooped up soon. regardsGraham
