Nope - the available options for the newer driver are quite different. Also, the problem is not that the PowerMizer defaults to adaptive - it doesn't, I can change its setting. It just never makes use of performance levels 2 and 3 - which is what I'd need. Hooray came up with the idea that power management might have to do something with it - judging by other people's posts, the behaviour that the performance level never goes all the way even with prefer max. performance set seems to be normal when running under battery - so does the driver perhaps think it runs under battery even if in reality it doesn't? Unfortunately right now I've gnome3 installed which has zilch in terms of configuration of power management, so I probably need to wait for Monday to get the bandwidth to install KDE and see if that makes a difference. Or is there a quicker way to test this? > Just to say that if you have a serious cloud coverage (with or whithout > rembrandt) you'll never get more than 30 fps and more likely 15 fps. It's abysmally bad - worse than with my old GPU - I'm seeing like 3-4 fps in minimal atmospheric light scattering, no clouds. The GeForce 8600M used to crunch this with 16-20 fps. :-) So it's definitely not just FG performance. * Thorsten ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor your physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure from a single web console.
