--=-MjBFQsYlpezlDwUIgzL1 Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, DRI was not enabled on either machine, when it was enabled it had no effect on the FreeBSD machine however had a negative effect on the Mandrake machine, dropping the frame rate to 238 frames per second.... There currently is no 3D acceleration for the Intel 84G on board video. I am currently running a numerical benchmark test on these machines and well let you know the results.
