Without GEM : 400~500 FPS .

With GEM activated :

4480 frames in 5.0 seconds = 895.932 FPS
4488 frames in 5.0 seconds = 897.557 FPS
4489 frames in 5.0 seconds = 897.731 FPS

+ No X crashes

:'-)

The packages are unstable ( I have some incompatibility issues but no crashes ^^ ), but hey ! The official ones were unstable too, so it makes no difference ;)

I think that we can have even 950 or 1000 FPS with the official GEM releases .

@Effenberg0x0 : Well, install KernelCheck ( kcheck.sourceforge.net ), select de Pre-development patch or something like that ( the version 2.6.28-rc7 of course ), and build the thing .

Then follow the instructions on : https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive ( always use the Jaunty repository, even if you have a Hardy ou Intrepid distro ) .

( You'll have to set your keyboard layout yourself if you see something like "[...]You have to reconfigure HAL or set AllowEmptyInput to false[...]" in the Xorg.0.log file ) .
