 |You have to precede commands with a slash in the latest q3, e.g. "/set 
 |timedemo 1"

Thanks, that's what I needed.  Just curious what I'd get.  15fps with my
old Pure3D (Voodoo Graphics) and 6.5fps with the G200.  Both at 640x480.

Steve Reid:
 |Lack of direct rendering is the main thing holding back the non-3dfx

Right, I realize DRI is the main win we'll get with XFree86 4.0.  The G200
frames look very nice.  My GLX libGL is 3 months old, so a more recent cut
might look even better.

I haven't optimizized anything -- not much point without DRI.  Just wanted
a benchmark to compare against future versions.

Thanks,

Randall
