Ok, I'm afraid that a future better optimized code for PowerPC isn't
posible due minor desktop-laptop user since Apple is out; Do you think
about? (I supposed that it's needed a high skill in program and PowerPC)
It's possible but unlikely.
Ok, I'll be hope. ^_^
Also, the X driver version / configuration may also matter. Make sure
you're using xserver-xorg-video-radeon from sid and that the DRI is
enabled.
I'm using:
ii xserver-xorg-video-radeon 1:6.12.2-3
X.Org X server -- ATI Radeon display driver
ii xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd 1.2.5-1
X.Org X server -- AMD/ATI r5xx, r6xx display driver
Did I need only "xserver-xorg-video-radeon"?
Yes.
Have you checked that your Xorg.0.log says direct rendering is enabled?
You are true! Look at this:
grep -i render /var/log/Xorg.0.log

There are so many warnings at my X conf, and two errors (simply solution).
I'm looking in Google for enable DRI but all I see is for FGLRX drivers,
but I do some extra test and, look:
glxinfo |head
name of display: :0.0
display: :0 screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.2
server glx extensions:
GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating,
GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap,
GLX_OML_swap_method,
GLX_SGI_make_current_read, GLX_SGIS_multisample, GLX_SGIX_hyperpipe,
GLX_SGIX_swap_barrier, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer
razer@mac-lobo:~$ xdriinfo
Screen 0: not direct rendering capable.
Why Glxinf say that "direct rendering: Yes" and Xdriinfo and X's says no?
Note: At this moment I'm using two monitors (using DVI output), Should
be influenced in this test?

Do you have a link to some "simpler" video, I want to try in my machine.
None offhand, sorry.
Don't worry about.
Thanks for your time and effort.
Regards.
Salud y Revolución.
