Sorry! I got that to work. I had not installed mesa-utils. This seemed
to solve this problem.
However, my graphics is quite slow. Text scrolls slowly in Iceweasel.
I checked glxgears and got only 400fps in windowed view and about
50fps in full screen. All this time, my processor utilzation is only
20%. So, Its not a processor problem.
I tried removing xorg.conf, - I get the same performance.
Can I edit xorg.conf and add in special statements to help speedup my graphics?
Thanks
