sometimes I really hate wine.

holy shit, 9800 GT.

Total surprise.

I went from using my shitty onboard intel graphics chip, to my new Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT. And motherfucker. I installed the proprietary driver from the nvidia website, loaded up WoW under wine, and got 60 FPS. I had 1 fps before. ONE. And now I have 60!

I am so unused to this. Go Nvidia, for kicking ATI’s ass in terms of linux support.

I was, however, mildly annoyed to find that I had to shut down X to install the Nvidia driver. Tch, don’t have to do that with ATI xD. That could throw off some linux users who are unused to the console and don’t know how to shut off X, etc.

But my god. I had the graphics turned up almost to the max settings, and got smooooth frames the whole way. In linux! Watch me never boot up into Windows again.

I got side-tracked.

So instead of Katamari, I will be testing the fglrx drivers. *groan*. But seeing as I just patched Imperishable Night for English, and found out that it runs out of the box on wine, I won’t settle for 2.5fps, and I won’t settle for that piece of shit fglrx driver I have installed currently. Btw, in reference to my last fglrx post, no, that new one was completely fucked and I couldn’t see a damn thing on my screen. I had to restart X and edit xorg.conf to use the ati driver. I guess I’ll just download a crapload of drivers and see which one works. Wish me luck.

Okay, 8.10 seems to be working okay so far…

bash-3.1$ fglrxinfo
display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: ATI Radeon Xpress Series
OpenGL version string: 2.1.8087 Release

bash-3.1$ glxinfo|grep render
direct rendering: Yes

Okay, it works well, ~60fps ftw. The only thing is that I can’t go fullscreen — so I’m using a virtual desktop in combination with xrandr to optimize this shit as best I can. I get the feeling though, that when my screen is supposedly 800×600, my virtual desktop gets smaller than /its/ supposed 800×600. >_> brb investigating with gimp.

I knew it. It’s 640×480. Fuck that shit.

Also, regular video playback crashes my computer with the fglrx driver. That’s irritating.
