Hi all,
I'm trying to debug the slow video performance on this machine using:
Code:
lspci | grep Ge
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV20 [GeForce3 Ti 200] (rev a3)
I installed the nvidia drivers from their website using the automated installer. Enabled "nvidia" in xorg.conf. So, it looks like its working, but things are running very sluggish. For example, running fluxbox, windows are drawn very slowly. I can't enable "opaque window moving" due to the video lag it produces. Virtual terminal windows (urxvt) refresh at a very slow/sluggish rate.
glxgears produces 3150 fps at the default resolution. So why the
slug?
Here is glxinfo output:
Code:

Which brings me to another question. Is this a different version of glxinfo than I'm used to? When I was using Debian, glxinfo had a line near the top, something like:
direct rendering: Yes (or no)
But that's not here at all, is direct rendering working?
Thanks.
