Topic: Sloooow

Ok, I have a problem. I'm running Debian GNU/Linux, installed Teeworlds via package manager.
The problem is that the game runs sooo slow in any resolution above 320x240 (yes, I'm playing like that). And even at that res, sometimes it lags. I have no idea what it might be, I have 2.4 GHz x86 processor, 1 GB RAM, and installed drivers for my Radeon X1500 (or something like that) plus OpenGL (libl-mesa*). So... what the heck?

Upgrade drivers.

Re: Sloooow

Sounds like you are running software GL (Mesa) which is usually dead slow. Make sure your X server has GL acceleration.

Re: Sloooow

I have fglrx (the propriatery driver :-( ). If you don't believe me, I'll give you my xorg.conf :-/

Re: Sloooow

Having that fglrx in your xorg.conf doesn't implies that this driver will be correctly loaded...

Re: Sloooow

run glxinfo and make sure it does not say it uses mesagl

Re: Sloooow

Yep, the driver.
Now I installed the free radeon driver (yaay!) http://packages.debian.org/lenny/xserve … deo-radeon and new mesa http://packages.debian.org/experimental/libgl1-mesa-dri and it works.
