Public bug reported:

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04 (Clean install) and while the new
Gallium3D\r300g driver is much better than the older one, the 3D
acceleration only functions when a TV is detected on the S-Video\TV-out
connector.

When a TV is not detected, it falls back to "Software Rasterizer"
instead.

I have a Radeon 9600XT Bravo (VIVO Edition)


When it's working I see in glxinfo output:

OpenGL vendor string: X.Org R300 Project
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on ATI RV350


When it's not, I see:

OpenGL vendor string: Mesa Project
OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer
