Hi all :))))))
...of coz i read faqs/howto/readmes from nvidia etc...So plz help me :P
I have an athlon xp 1800+, 512mb ram, geforce 2mx 64mb..
I've installed Nvidia drivers without problems, nv_check.sh can't find any kind of problem, i'm not using mesa but when i run quake3 i can only get 30-38 fps....(ah, i'm also using nvagp, agpart is not compiled in my kernel), these are my quake3 parameters :P, as you can see anisotropic filtering and antialiasing is disabled:

export __GL_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=1 export __GL_FSAA_MODE=0
export __GL_DEFAULT_LOG_ANISO=0
quake3 +set cd_nocd +set fs_cdpath "/usr/local/games/quake3/"
+set vid_ref "glx"
+set gl_mode 6
+set gl_driver "/usr/lib/opengl/nvidia/lib/libGL.so.1.0.3123"
+set r_displayrefresh "0"
+set com_maxfps "125"

but my framerate is really really low...this is my XF86Config settings for nvidia :)

# This loads the GLX module
Load "glx"

Section "Device"
Identifier "NVIDIA GeForce2 MX DDR"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "NvAGP" "1"
Option "DigitalVibrance" "1"
Option "CursorShadow" "1"
Option "CursorShadowAlpha" "50"
Option "CursorShadowYOffset" "1"
VideoRam 65536
EndSection

Agp is working without fast write at 4x, all seems ok, but still i can get half fps compared to my windows box, can someone help me plz? thanx a lot (ah, i'm running a gentoo linux)
thanx again :)

The nVidia drivers (at least the .tar.gz ones, which is what I'm assuming you used on Gentoo, right?) put their version of libGL.so into /usr/lib, not that long path you have. I'd try either removing that +set altogether or making it +set gl_driver "/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.0.3123" instead.

yep, but gentoo uses .ebuild packages, anyway they are the same identic files of the normal tar.gz

yes that's true, btw libGL.so on gentoo is only a symlink to /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.0.3123, i've removed that line now, i've use +set gl_driver "/usr/lib/libGL.so" but my framerate is still the same :) thanx for your help :)
