Subject: vdrift: slow even if it says GPU is fast enough (DRI is present)
Package: vdrift
Version: 0.0.2006.02.21-1
Severity: important

I have a Radeon 9600 M10 card with the r300 driver. I have direct
rendering enabled, but vdrift is slow in spite of this. The displayed
FPS is around 7-8 during the game.
