Title: ATI Radeons and Linux Post by: fromhell on August 17, 2006, 08:29:02 PM This is interesting. fglrx doesn't perform badly in OA as i thought it would be. The settings: 1024x768x32, r_picmip 0, bilinear filter, r_flares 1, r_detailTextures 1, the card is a Radeon 9800
Linux results: bench_dm6ish : 166fps bench_gargoyles2 : 90fps Windows results: bench_dm6ish: 152fps bench_gargoyles2: 110fps avg I find the dm6ish benchmark odd imo since it's faster in Linux. The benchmark demos are in the SVN by the way [Edited on 8-18-06 by leileilol] Title: Post by: Anonymous on August 18, 2006, 05:00:03 AM Radeons up to 9250 perform wonderful with the free drivers.

I run an X700pcie with r_300. To state the obvious; fgl is not a free driver. Where can we get the benches? please, please, include them in the mainline distribution. Would be ideal to compare the various open driver/hardware combinations for performance. |
