For some days now, my acer 1362LMI (sempron 2800+) can start with the via driver for K8M800.(xserver-xorg-driver-via 33.2 ubuntu4)

However most of the application using opengl (mesa) freeze the computer . This is the case with :
egoboo
tuxracer
some screen savers
torcs

openuniverse and xcompmgr/transset are ok.

I configured the video with dpkg reconfigure xserver-xorg with or without framebuffer, and I chose 16bits as color depth. I tested two kernels 2.6.15.21-i386 and 2.6.15.22-k7 with the same result.

glxgears yields around 700 FPS (16bits + Kernel K7)

I can play dvd smoothly
