Wonderful, thank for your persistence it was very helpful. I will had an #ifdef _VIRGEDX in my code so that it will worl out of the box next time ; ) And this will be the version I will commit to cvs tomorrow. > just to be sure i also deleted the drm/kernel folder and extracted the > files from your tarball again, and then just uncommented the > S3V_WRITE_CMD_DMA_ENABLE_REG line. i didn't make any changes to the other > files. ; ) I like your style. > now i get 84-85 fps, guess i had forgotten to disable the drm debug. thats > about 2.5/3 times as fast as software mode is for me. We are getting close. I thought it should run around ~90/100 on a machine like yours. Could you try: - turning gears to the slim side (so that you will just see the thin profile). How much you scored? - reduce window, enlarge window. Does speed change much? (we are bitblitting [so win size is quite relevant] not page flipping: in fullscreen mode -if we will ever implement it- speed will be greater) - overclock your cpu [try with jumpers to run it at 233] it should not be too hard (try then to recompile your kernel to see everything is OK) - how fast is your RAM? Could you give me result from hdparm -T -t /dev/hda > the computer im testing this on has redhat 7.1 > i haven't got the glutdemos, so i'll download them too and see how they > work. Ok. BTW: What wm are you running? If you have less then 128 (64, isnt'it?) please don't run gmome/kde concurrently to opengl apps but a light wm (try wmaker or xfce), otherwise I noticed slow down due to low memory condition. Sometimes X hung at the start since memory got fragmented and it was not even able to allocate the DMA buffers ; ( So I resorted to lighter WMs, and lowered DMA buffers (64k) from 32 to 16.
