m.
I'd like to find out if I should install this driver,
and if it will improve frame rate in FG. I have a
Dell Inspiron 8200, 2 GB RAM, 1.6 GHz Pentium CPU.
Video card is 32 MB DDR 4X AGP GeForce2. Current
driver:
# more /proc/driver/nvidia/version
NVRM version: NVIDIA Linux x86 NVIDIA Kernel Module
1.0-6629 Wed Nov 3 13:12:
51 PST 2004
GCC version: gcc version 3.3.3 20040412 (Red Hat
Linux 3.3.3-7)
Using these options:
--geometry=1024x768
--disable-specular-highlight
--visibility-miles=18.0
I get 12-14 frame per second. I've been told that this
is about all I can expect from the 32 MB card.
Sounds about right. The s3tc patch improves things a bit in areas where
there are lots of textures (like near the carrier), but you're
definitely near the limits of that card.
