Martin 33-34 frames per second on startup (falling as low as 20 on final approach to KSFO at the end of my free circuit :¬) System info, FWIW: ASUS A7N8X motherboard 512 MB RAM Athlon 2600 CPU clocked at 1913 MHz (*) Mandrake Linux 9.1 Kernel 2.4.21-0.13mdk XFree86 Version 4.3.0 NVidia drivers version 5336 KDE 3.1 (That's more or less vanilla Mandrake 9.1, really.) This is a great idea - with your permission, I'll volunteer to buy and burn a hundred or so business-card cd-rs e.g. http://www.cd-rmedia.co.uk/cgi-bin2/details.pl?id=saddle52 for passing out at the Linux User Expo? http://www.linux-expo.co.uk/ Obviously, I'll wait and see if there's a newer version before then. And if anyone knows a better source for the media, let me know. Regards Jonathan (*) Don't ask. I can't make the motherboard clock the Athlon any higher than this, but it's fast enough for me! Runs cool, too. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
