(Yes, I'm aware it's NOT a benchmark, for instance I noticed it's very dependent on CPU part: simple change of a CPU governor may change figures dramatically, and so on...) But in my case (I use exactly the same environment except the hardware) its numbers apparently correspond well to what I "look and feel" while using the computer: how smooth the cube rotates, firefox scrolls, etc. Unfortunately, it *is* slower, hotter and gives a shorter battery life... And while I found open source driver on E-450 quite usable, I've to switch to fglrx on my new notebook so far -- having all it's disadvantages and headaches... BTW, if you can suggest a reliable benchmark, I could do the measurements... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
