Weird, I DL, and built it. It seems to work. Also using Debian 3.0 with
Nvidia. Not sure what speed is supposed to be reported. Is 2000FPS a good
thing or a bad thing?
2000FPS when running in its default window.
When I go FullScreen, it drops to ~200FPS
When I minimize ot or cover it, I get ~9000FPS
I guess this is a tool to estimate FPS for First Person Shooters?
Am running with
NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-4191
and
NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-4191
Under X11, XF86Config-4 I have my modules set like this:
Section "Module"
Load "bitmap"
Load "dbe"
Load "ddc"
Load "extmod"
Load "freetype"
# reqired as per nvidia readme:
Load "glx"
Load "int10"
Load "pex5"
Load "record"
Load "speedo"
Load "type1"
Load "vbe"
Load "xie"
#removed as per nvidia readme:
# Load "GLcore"
# Load "dri"
EndSection
Do you have these enabled?
Do you have libsdl1.2-dev installed (debain package)
How about libsdl-image
libsdl1.2debian-all
(other sdl packages)
glutg3-dev
glut3g
other glut...
