Athlon 1GHz
256MB RAM
ATI Xpert 2000 Pro (Rage 128)
the problem I have is that in Tuxracer, TuxKart and FlightGear (the only 3D
games i have on my system) I can only get 1 frame per second.
I am running SuSE7.2 and XFree86 4.1.0 with DRI enabled.
If I run glxgears it shows that I can get ~172 FPS. So why can't I get
this in the games?
Thanks for any help...

(It is necessary to be insane among maniacs.)
The SunVideo board is a frame-grabber with a compressor.
Any time you _decompress_ video, or compress video from a source other
than the SunVideo, the SunVideo board isn't involved at all; the work
is done by the regular CPU, perhaps with some help from the framebuffer.
Aside: if anyone has found any _good_ PC frame-grabbers, I'd like to
hear about them; my last window-shopping trip to Fry's was pretty
disappointing. My notion of "good" is: can capture 30 fps at a
reasonable image size (160x120 is not reasonable), and really lets me
get at the bits -- none of this VGA-video-window-hack-but-you-can't-
capture-the-bits nonsense. Yes, this is personal interest rather than
official Sun corporate anything, and no, comp.unix.solaris probably
isn't the place for a discussion of this.
