OK me too but .... Win2k pIII 733 gForce2 fastest NVIDIA reference drivers available for my machine, and I do test them all as they are released startup location brakes on no hud no panel windowed mode 56 fps < full screen size window > game mode 71 fps < no window dressing > a 25% improvement in framerate !! This is due, I am sure, for the most part because the graphics card does not need to switch in and out of gl accelerated mode inorder to draw the window dressing < frame menu bar status bar ect > I do not have a linux box to play with but I am almost willing to bet that a full screen undecorated window would have a somewhat similar speedup under X compared to drawing in a 'X' decorated window, if that would keep the gfx card in gl accelerated mode ie a "FullScreen OpenGL Surface" OK - I'll shutup now too :-) Cheers Norman _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
