Run some real programs and if you have performance problems with those, then you have something to worry about. -- Raymond Lewis Rebbeck -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list Hmm ok, I still think its very strange that I didnt get that much FPS than the first time an someone with the same notebook still does. does someone know a benchmak tool for opengl? I searched in portage but I didnt find one. Regard Jakob
