I find it works much better with the attached magic .drirc file in my
home directory. The key parameter is:
<option name="disable_lowimpact_fallback" value="true" />
<driconf>
<device screen="0" driver="r300">
<application name="Default">
<option name="force_s3tc_enable" value="false" />
<option name="no_rast" value="false" />
<option name="fthrottle_mode" value="2" />
<option name="command_buffer_size" value="8" />
<option name="tcl_mode" value="3" />
<option name="texture_depth" value="0" />
<option name="disable_s3tc" value="false" />
<option name="no_neg_lod_bias" value="false" />
<option name="def_max_anisotropy" value="1.0" />
<option name="round_mode" value="0" />
<option name="dither_mode" value="0" />
<option name="texture_coord_units" value="8" />
<option name="disable_lowimpact_fallback" value="true" />
<option name="texture_image_units" value="8" />
<option name="color_reduction" value="1" />
<option name="vblank_mode" value="1" />
</application>
</device>
</driconf>
