Help with ATI drivers for 9700 pro


Alright; I recently downloaded the drivers from ATI onto my computer (slackware, 2.4 kernel).

However, when I do "fglrxinfo" it displays the following:
Code:
bash-2.05b$ fglrxinfo
display: :0.0  screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: RADEON 9500 Pro Generic
OpenGL version string: 1.3 (X4.3.0-3.11.1)
-Says a 9500 pro; I don't think that it is THAT big of a deal:
Code:
bash-2.05b$ glxgears
23097 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4619.400 FPS
34487 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6897.400 FPS
34489 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6897.800 FPS
34424 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6884.800 FPS
34476 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6895.200 FPS
34333 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6866.600 FPS
Does that seem about right?
