So does the 3D acceleration actually work in your setup?

I've got a machine with a 9200 running 5.2.1 that seems to detect the 
card ok

     drm0: <ATI Radeon RV280 9200> port 0xde00-0xdeff mem 
0xfe9e0000-0xfe9effff,0xf0000000-0xf7ffffff
          irq 11 at device 0.0 on pci1
     info: [drm] AGP at 0xe0000000 128MB
     info: [drm] Initialized radeon 1.10.0 20020828 on minor 0

Loaded the x11-servers/XFree86-Server-snap port to get a newer "radeon" 
server that recognizes the 9200,
but when I "startx" the screen goes black and the machine freezes  - 
unless I comment out the "glx" module in /etc/X11/XF86Config

Everything else about the card seems to work fine,  xvideo extension is 
good.  Just no 3D.

I realize this isn't a proper bug report, and you guys are probably on 
stable, not current - but I just wondering how much is actually working 
for you.
