no fps output but i've calculated the red gear runs at 12 RPMs!
xmoto: game menu is less than responsive, but game runs at about 1 FPS
The same machine has SUSE 10.1 on-board: none of the above.

I have the same problem on my ibook 14'' with radeon 9550. I found that running 'glxgears -printfps' shows the FPS rate, and it's at about 25 (!!)
I also know that it can work much better, because few months ago I used gentoo on this machine and had it working very well.
