Since that PC also had Win'98, I did the test there as well (using the Windows version of UT, of course). The results of running 'utbench.dem', in frames per second: Windows'98: 15.2 FPS RedHat 6.1: 15.8 FPS FreeBSD 4.1: 14.3 FPS The results reproduce well within 0.3 FPS. Hardware: K6-2 @ 500 MHz, Voodoo2 SLI, resolution 1024x768 @ 60 Hz, using the same UT configuration everywhere. Of course, this doesn't 'prove' anything except that I observed it on my particular machine with this particular application. Karel.
