Hello SuSE people,

Downloaded the latest nvidia driver last night. (100.14.09) RPMs from the
Nvidia repo. Installed OK, but, GLXgears shows only about 2900 FPS.
Shouldn't it be much faster? I get the nvidia spalsh at bootup amd my
xorg.conf shows nvidia as the driver.



2900 fps? wow, wish I could get that many. If you were using the plain old
frame buffer you'd be lucky to get a few hundred FPS on glxgears.

2900 would be great by me......thats more than double what I have !!!

5802 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1160.341 FPS
5917 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1183.387 FPS
6317 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1263.319 FPS
6513 frames in 5.1 seconds = 1285.175 FPS
6598 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1319.585 FPS



I get about 1500 fps on Dell Latitude D820 with Geforce Go 7300GT (Suse
10.2)

On my AMD64 64 X2 +3200 AGP8, Geforce 7300 GT I get 8800 fps without
Compiz and about 6500 fps with Compiz. (Suse 10.2)

On my AMD64 64 X2 +4600 PCIE X16, Geforce 7300 GT I get 6800 fps without
Compiz and about 4500 fps with Compiz. (Suse 10.3, Beta1)

These are all with the 100.14.11 driver, but I got about 2% less with
the 9639 driver.

Seems to depend a great deal on the video card interface.
