John, what's your latency? I installed the boards and actually it's a bit disappointing. I installed one to my wife's office to replace an old Dell, and watching a video clip on Vimeo doesn't simply work, it lags and flickers pretty heavily. Even worse; Ubuntu 12.10 doesn't recognize the graphics and it goes black screen with 64bit and ends up with half the screen size in 32bit! I was hacking around with xrandr to get it a decent display and never got it running well (The board is configured as a laptop by Ubuntu, no wonder it's mostly laptop harware. But why on earth is a second non existing display configured?..). Ubuntu 10 installs fine and finds the correct resolution right away but the heavy lag is still there. My LTS support towards Ubuntu is on the edge now... I installed LinuxCNC on my board and ran latency tests and it was quite easy to ramp it up to 14 250 ns. That's worse than my existing configuration at the reconfigured PC that's in use now that this thread from the beginning was about. I also made the remote X tests as discussed earlier in this thread and then the PC maxed out at 9 920 ns. 4 GB high quality RAM 60 GB SSD super fast disc Hyper threading disabled/enabled tested isolcpu=1 6-7 ms? No chance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.
