Hello
I made some Benchmark comparisons with my Video card under WinME and Linux,
here are the resulst:
Perhaps using the new tdfx driver branch 3.1, DRI inbuild Mesa 3.5 and Kernel 2.4
could be a little
bit faster.
================================================
Linux vs. WindowsME Quake3Arena Demo Benchmarks:
================================================
How To Benchmark:
Start Quake3 Arena Demo
Open console
(to open console with a German keyboard layout press "right
shift" + "`" -> the key next to ß )
and insert the following commands:
> timedemo 1 <return>
> demo demo001.dm3
after that go back to console and read the values.
then enter
> timedemo 1 <return>
> demo demo002.dm3
Computer:
Athlon 500 MHz
128 MB SDRAM 100 MHz
3Dfx Voodoo 3 2000 PCI
ASUS K7M Mainboard
Terratec EWS64XL Soundcard
Linux Slackware 7.1
XFree 4.0.2
CVS-DRI TDFX drivers (tdfx branch 3.0) -> from end of March
DRI-XFree inbuild Mesa3d was 3.4
Kernel 2.2.18
WindowsME
3dFX Driver from 2 November 2000 = (11/02/2000)
(22bit Postfilter is turned on in WinME !)
Percent Rate is: (fpsLinux*100)/fpsWin = Linux Value
Windows Percent Value is allways set to 100 %

End of Benchmarking
=================================================
The Linux drivers are not very fast compard to their
windows counterpart.
I hope that will change some day.
