This is all really awesome information everyone and I am very appreciative of all your ime and knowledge... however...
What does this mean to the guy who hasn't recompiled a linux kenel before? Right now I'm seting fps_max on the command line to 500. Can I get more than 500 fps without recompiling? What settings would that require? If I do have to recompile, where do I start learning for that? How dangerous is it?
