Seconded. If the game runs bad on both gentoo and winxp it has to be related to hardware. Demos often have much less detail, smaller maps, etc. And often they have terrible coding so that the final runs better. Either way, you're stuck with what you've got for the time being. Try turning everything configuration-wise down to the lowest and then bring it up step by step until you're happy with the performance.
Agreed. I can squeeze 30fps in ut2k3 out of a voodoo3 2000agp. It's in a spare box i threw together for my sister. Runs XP (no flames), but the point remains.
Also, I read somewhere that the linux release version had a somewhat poorly optimised GL renderer (win uses D3D). It mightn't hurt to patch it to the latest version.
