I have an ATI based laptop, and have no problems with the compiz/beryl + aiglx combo using xorg-drv-ati or with google earth. however, i dont really care much for most of this desktop eyecandy, so just use ati's drivers ( since I do enjoy a bit of enemy-territory + true combat elite + quake4 ) and get framerates like this : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ glxgears 45865 frames in 5.0 seconds = 9172.979 FPS 61548 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12309.445 FPS 59406 frames in 5.0 seconds = 11881.133 FPS 59597 frames in 5.0 seconds = 11919.334 FPS 61542 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12308.389 FPS 61425 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12284.986 FPS and... [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ fgl_glxgears Using GLX_SGIX_pbuffer 8041 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1608.200 FPS 8219 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1643.800 FPS 8326 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1665.200 FPS 8326 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1665.200 FPS What non ATI based laptop do you plan on getting that will give you this sort of performance ? btw, I also have a intel core2 - i945 based laptop and i wont bother publishing graphic stats for that... its almost embarrassing. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - September 28-29, 2007 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
