0 Fps On Linux

Recommended Posts

I'm getting 0fps on linux

 

- running slackware 10

- i just downloaded the newest executables.

- running the static bin build

- i got a P4 2.1Ghz with 512ram so problem is not there

- i usually run on windows with at least 10-15fps

- running xserver with kde (if that mathers ....)

- using Konsole for "shell"

 

running top with el on i'm getting that the X process usesaround 95% of the CPU and 10% of system memory, and the client barely gets to 5%

 

ones i close el X goes down to 6% RAM and like 3% cpu.

 

 

what am i doing wrong? do i have to run el from single command line? do i have to turn of Xserver to play?

What graphic card - it is most important. EL can even run on very crappy computer if graphic card is

good. Duh.

You are not using hardware-accellerated video drivers. What graphics card are you using? Issue the #glinfo command and post the first three lines of that.
