I also have an nvidia card, though an older one, and when I go from Enhanced Runway Lights (as low as 3 fps) to no Enhanced Runway Lights, it jumps to 40 fps. Any connection?

Gerard,

A few of us have had that problem. One solution, as pointed out by
Melchior is to go back to 6629 drivers. If you're running 2.6.11 kernel
you will have to patch them as per the instructions at:

http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=46676

Though I didn't try the other solution suggested to turn off enhanced
runway lighting, which would certainly be easier.

The 6629 drivers also give better performance with the torcs driving sim
so I'll stick with them for now.

 You are all right  it is coming from the runway ligh, unfortunately no
change when acting on theses properties.
It seem coming, only, from the red lights which are on the left side at
the beginning of the runway, when running on, as soon as passed the
lights  the fps is good.

Can i deactivate theses lights, to test it ?



About  6629 with patch I have been working with it, it could be ok but
on my side the fps is not better than my old overclocked 5200.


And 6629 + 6600 GT does not give good performances with Celestia ("an
other Star history")
