I'm trying to run openGL apps on my inspiron 1420N and it seems that hardware acceleration doesn't work. Here are a few tests:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
guignome@dell:~/test-intel$ more /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep intel
        Driver "intel"

guignome@dell:~/test-intel$ more /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Load
        Load "bitmap"
        Load "ddc"
        Load "dri"
        Load "extmod"
        Load "freetype"
        Load "glx"
        Load "int10"
        Load "vbe"
guignome@dell:~/test-intel$ glxgears
5651 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1130.039 FPS
5909 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1181.773 FPS
guignome@dell:~/test-intel$ glxinfo | grep -i direct
direct rendering: Yes
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I also tried to run ogre3d graphic engine. All the ogre demos display a black screen when dri is enabled. If I disable dri, they display correctly but I have about 2FPS.
glxgears returns the same FPS wether or not dri is enabled.

Tested on feisty fawn that was preinstalled by dell, and on the livecd of Gutsy beta1.

Hope that helps :-)
