I run Linux games on an old IBM thinkpad. Some games run faster if I boot into a light window manager like Fluxbox so more system resources are available for the game.

What is you system specs? what is you desktop environment? What is your screen resolution?

I'm talking bout extensions. what are they? how to write them properly in xorg? any ideas?

H_TeXMeX_H 03-21-2008 03:06 PM

What video card do you have ?

STARHARVEST 03-21-2008 03:18 PM

gforce mx 400

STARHARVEST 03-21-2008 03:21 PM

just gimmie some example of xorg with extensions.

farslayer 03-21-2008 03:46 PM

xorg.conf should contain nvidia as the driver for your video card, not nv
Your card is supported using the nvidia-legacy drivers.

I don't have a clue what you are referring to by extensions in xorg.conf

STARHARVEST 03-22-2008 03:46 AM

I've checked xorg now and there is "nvidia" not "nv".
Also, in Section "Module" -
Load "glx"
Load "dri"
But still fps are too slow.

H_TeXMeX_H 03-22-2008 05:00 AM

You should NOT be loading dri, there is no use for it. It should be more like:

Code:

Section "Module"
    Load          "dbe"
    Load          "extmod"
    Load          "type1"
    Load          "freetype"
    Load          "glx"
EndSection

If you're using the nvidia driver, why not use 'nvidia-settings' to configure it, then save changes to 'xorg.conf'.

STARHARVEST 03-22-2008 05:14 AM

what is "extmod" for?

H_TeXMeX_H 03-22-2008 07:46 AM

There's something about it here:
http://livna.org/pipermail/freeworld...er/000825.html

The best thing to do is use 'nvidia-settings' to configure it. Also, what kind of FPS are you getting ? I guess with glxgears, even tho it's not a benchmark. If you benchmarked it with something like Quake 2 or 3, that would be better.

STARHARVEST 03-22-2008 09:43 AM

ops. now checked again, there was "extmod" line too..

Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension
SubSection "extmod"
Option "omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension
EndSubSection
Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
#Load "speedo"
Load "glx"
Load "dri"

well, what things have to be added for smart graphics? What modules or whatever else?

H_TeXMeX_H 03-22-2008 10:58 AM

I don't understand ... what is 'smart' graphics ?

I mean fast, with sufficient fps.
