What's the output of glxinfo? Is your user in group video and thus have access to 
/dev/dri/* devices?

Looks perfect. What are the glxgears results when using

  LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 glxgears

instead? 

For better performance you might want to switch to 16bit color depth.

When using LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 I get only about 120fps

If there´s nothing wrong then this card is just so slow.
I was just curious because Q3 should run even on much older cards.

I get about 1000 fps in 16bit on this card, but this is a 1,6 MHz AMD64 machine.
It is possible that a process outperforms glxgears. Check this with ps/top.

I tried switching to 16bit, but I don´t get much better frame rates. And when I
try to move the glxgears window the computer locks up frequently.
I tried the "ps/top" thing but it seems that this is no correct parameter. I
don´t know the linux command line very good so what do I have to enter?

Use "ps" *or* "top".

Thanks *g
I checked this and glxgears is the application which gets the most CPU folowed by X

What kind of machine is this? Pentium I/II?

A Laptop with Pentium III-Mobile 1066MHZ

Not that bad, but I'm afraid you need to live with that.

No worries, I just thought at first that there´s something wrong.
