Hey there everyone,

When I use gnome-shell and I just open up a game like Sauerbraten, Warsow
or Urban Terror, I can play smoothly, at 40 or 50 FPS.

However, on Awesome WM (and for the record, any tiling window manager like
dwm, or even openbox), the games won't go past 15 FPS. They're really
really slow and unplayable. Any idea why?

I actually have an idea... Hardware acceleration (or that OpenGL
acceleration thingie), which I think Gnome Shell has enabled, but I don't
know how I could fix it so that games could run just fine on Awesome WM.

Thank you.
