You know how to verify that... > or my config is bad. I'm sure you've tried page flipping and ruled out things like usleeps in the client side drivers? If you're still running a relatively slow CPU, that may be the bottleneck (how do that other QF developer's overall system specs compare to yours?); ATI's drivers may shove more work down to the card than we do. You could try their Linux drivers for another data point. -- Earthling Michel DÃnzer | Debian (powerpc), X and DRI developer Libre software enthusiast | http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
