 The built in 3d screen savers are very slow (for example Hufo's Tunnel). Can I do something about this? Regards, Sladi Last edited by sladi; May 8, 2007 at 07:38 AM. |

Are you sure that the screen savers are set to use GL as their rendering API?
By the way... you could try installing the fglrx package off of Synaptic package manager, or maybe Automatix supports it? Automatix worked wonders for my nVidia driver issues under Xubuntu 7.04 |
