-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 SuSE 10.1, stock plus YOU updates Pentium 4, 1800 Mhz, 1GiB ram GeForce2 MX/MX 400 (supported according to http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_18897.html) I wanted to check FlightGear, therefore I had to activate 3D and accel. I downloaded the newest nvidia driver, NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8776-pkg1.run. I modified /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the same way I had done previously in 9.3 where it worked, and rebooted. I try "glxgears", small window: cer@nimrodel:~> glxgears 3596 frames in 5.0 seconds = 719.072 FPS 4023 frames in 5.0 seconds = 804.191 FPS 4011 frames in 5.0 seconds = 802.194 FPS full screen 697 frames in 5.0 seconds = 139.220 FPS 652 frames in 5.0 seconds = 130.221 FPS The gears turn slowly, and the main cpu soars to 100%. This is not normal. 3D games like ppracer (Planet Penguin racer) And Flight Gear (Flight simulator) do work, but slowly, play may stop and jerk for a second now and then. At least ppracer worked fine a year ago with SuSE 9.3. But the fact that they work prove there is 3D, otherwise they would refuse to work. I have switched from a depth of 24 bits to 16, but I don't see much difference: 7878 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1575.520 FPS <-- small window 7657 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1531.376 FPS 6948 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1389.504 FPS 7800 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1559.852 FPS 2162 frames in 5.0 seconds = 432.110 FPS <--- Full window 1394 frames in 5.0 seconds = 278.762 FPS 5008 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1001.516 FPS cpu at 100% (90% for process glxgears).
