Now with 7.6: Radeon Mobility HD2400 (128M, Toshiba Satellite A215) At xorg "Virtual 1024x768" and nexuiz 640x480 16-bit and lowest effects settings, it's about 2 seconds between screen updates in the GUI (higher virtual resolution makes it slower, at native 1280x800 it's 5 seconds between input and screen update). The game takes 30 seconds or so to start, and it's seconds between input and movement. In fairness, this is without ACPI (won't boot with it) and this Toshiba is basically built for Windows, so it may be something else interfering. Possibly thermal CPU throttling because of the ACPI problems. Data at http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/radeon/mobHD2400/ . Just for comparison... Radeon FireGL9000 (32M, Dell Inspiron 8500) At 1920x1200, nexuiz can be started, but it's about 10 seconds between screen updates for the GUI and the game. At xorg.conf 1024x768 or less, with all nexuiz settings at their lowest, it's still not really playable, but runs nearly interactively. Faster than the Toshiba, anyway. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA
