Hi,
Got my Laptop, installed Linux, installed the latest ATI driver (although only
running SuSe's 9.1 updated kernel - 2.6.5)
I'm running fgl_glxgears (probably not an unbiased test given it's ATIs code I
would guess). I'm getting 490fps - looks good. I'm going to investigate
exactly what
Should probably end this thread now, the topic is wondering from being in
the slightest flightgear related.
Bad form to reply to my own post.
I have decided not to go with an nvidia based system because the performance
seems that much worse compared to the 9700 based ati graphics in some

You specifically need to decide whether weight is a factor for you:
(a) a desk top replacement, will weigh about 8 lb ... a luggable
(b) a lightweight powersaver, will weigh about 4 lb ... no gaming
conversion 2.2lbs = 1kg, so I guess I'm talking a 'not quite desktop
replacement at ~7lbs.'

Good afternoon,
I've been 'away' for a while - no internet connection for two months, didn't
really miss it. I now have ~5000 emails to catch up with, luckily most of
those are mailing list related.

I'm going to buy a laptop very soon (pay day approaches). I wondered if
anyone had a Rock Pegasus Ti with a 1.7GHz Pentium -M ( new core type) and
1GB of memory and a 7200rpm HDD. This is what I'm considering buying at
the moment.

I've never bought a loptop for myself, but when I

Is this the plane where the three hydraulics systems pass adjacent to each
other next to the tail engine?

Don't want to rain on your parade, but someone donated a Concorde
already. There was just nobody who wanted to reduce the *many* vertices
and re-apply the textures afterwards. Blender is quite good at reducing,
but it would still mean a lot of work. If you want to continue to work

It's even better. You can hook up your 5.1 amplifier and speaker set
using ALSA:

unfortunately I won't get time until the weekend...

Probably the blades are doing a lot more than just spinning around the
hub.
Indeed (I knew this), but for a slave machine and potentially multiplayer I do
not believe it is sensible to do any more than get the propeller spinning and

Well I'm afraid to say I've been busy and are only just catching up on the
mailings. I agree with the above.
I think the long term solution should be a joystick configuration

When the a/c is stationary the force on the wheels is the aircraft weight
less the lift due to airflow over the lifting surfaces (a function of
wind). As the a/c progresses on takeoff the above effect should change as
the a/c gains speed.
I may have forgotten about gear expansion / damping.

Anyone else interested.
I reset the c172 default start up a/c (reset or not this happens).
I reset then put parking brake on.
Leave it for 5 mins and then notice it's yawed slightly to port.

Andy,
It's a misfeature in the gear modelling. YASim has pretty much the
same behavior. Both FDMs model gear force as a function of skidding
velocity, which is fine for dynamic solutions. But a gear that is
planted on the ground is capable of holding an aircraft at zero
velocity, which

I did a google search but so far have not found the words cygwin and openal
