Hi damjan,
Here we go: direct rendering: Yes OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 0x301) GL_NV_conditional_render, GL_AMD_draw_buffers_blend,

You're using software rendering. No wonder it's slow.
What's your video card? Are the drivers installed? How do you start gnome? startx? GDM?
Oh, I didn't realize. llvm-pipe = software rendering?
I thought all I had to do was install xf86-video-nouveau. I start GDM with the inittab method: x:5:respawn:/usr/sbin/gdm -nodaemon
The graphics card seems to be a nvidia NVS 3100M Here's the line from lspci: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GT218 [NVS 3100M] [10de:0a6c] (rev a2) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Thanks for your help. Pico
Ok, so I installed nouveau-dri and the problem went away. I can't claim to understand this, I terminal output would only need xf86-video-nouveau. I thought nouveau-dri was mainly for opengl type acceleration. Is there something I can go read to clear this up? Thanks all for the help. Pico
