HyperD Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I've read around that ATI cards aren't the best for Linux, but I've been trying to play some basic packaged 3D games, But I get a really crappy framerate. Anywhere from 0 - 15fps. I've installed the latest proprietary one (Released Sept 17 or something) and still to no avail. Some system specs: Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron ATI Radeon X1600 Pro ASUS SiS K7S41GX Motherboard 640MB RAM When this was running XP, I could run things like Doom 3 at med-High, NFS:MW med-high, Spore on Med-Low.

steviewdr Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Ya - ATI aren't very helpful on providing drivers to linux developers. As a result they have to be reverse engineered. Reverse engineering graphic drivers for 3d on linux is more work then. -steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
