Post your glxgears numbers

[77Punker]

I have a
P4 1.7
512 mb ram
128 mb GeForce FX 5200
and I get 1500 fps on glxgears in KDE 3.1.4
Before I had the FX I had a GF2 MX and it got 820 FPS. Big jump!

[Icarus]

Hmm, this is a /dev/random topic if I've ever seen one ;)

My laptop gives ~1657fps running Fedora with an ATI Radeon 9000 64mb
Thats a bit slow, I've gotten 2000+ on it before...

I'll post my desktop later, but I know it's over 3000

If you're getting around 200 fps, it means you're using software acceleration. The video card needs new drivers to enable hardware acceleration.

Assuming you're using ATIs fglrx drivers, go through fglrx_config (I think, not in Linux ATM) and when it asks you if you want to sync the signal to the monitor's vertical signal, say no.

However, the only reason you'd want to turn it off is for video benchmarking purposes.

[camaro71633]

Thanks for the info but i dont think i am using that driver i am using the stock generic radeon drivers. Is there any other way to speed it up avi playback and screensavers are rather slow :(

You should be able to use the default Xfree86 drivers, look in how I did it for enabling 3d opengl for the radeon. Added: See next post

Look at this thread for using the the dri driver on the R40:

[bwkaz]

glxgears is waaay too simple to be a benchmark, though. It tests your CPU more than your graphics card, as long as you have some minimum level of hardware OpenGL. It's also affected by many, many more things than just your card speed.

Case in point: When I run it under kernel 2.4.23, I get about 2400 fps, all the time. But when I run it under 2.6.0, I start out at about 100 fps, and stay there until the glxgears window gets focus. At that point, it jumps up to about 3000fps, but only for a second or two, so the numbers printed only go up to like 1500 fps. Then it drops back to about 100.

[bandwidth_pig]

True enough Bwkaz...but even when I don't run it at full screen I have low numbers. I think it must be the video card. Just for grins I downloaded 3DMark and booted into Windows and ran it there. Again, full screen tests with the same results. If you look at my previous post under this thread, I played around with the window sizes quite a bit.

Well, if nothing else, it proves that the problem was not the NVIDIA driver I was using under the 2.6 kernel, which I half wondered. Just for fun, I am tempted to try and get my 3d acceleration to work on my Athlon/Radeon box. I'm running FreeBSD on it and haven't setup 3d acceleration on BSD before. It would be interesting.

Very interesting. Always have been fond of this ATI card. What would be real interesting is to take it out of this box and pop it in my Linux box with the P4 and see how that bench mark turns out. Heck...I might do that next over New Years. Might.
