 |

Hi friends.
I have a new Geforce 6200 with 256 MB DDR2 on a AMD64 3000+ with 1 GB Ram. I followed the howto's and used the newest packages media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.7676-r1 and media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0.7676. While compiling everythings fine..
When I start glxgears and i maximize the glxgears-window i only get 654 frames in 5.0 seconds = 130.800 FPS
my glxinfo is:

Has anybody an idea why my card is so slow??
Is it possible that it has something to do with agppart or nvagp? Maybe using older driver will fix it? Must i use other options?
Please help..

No guru in this but shouldn't you have "DRI" enabled in X to speed it up?
Something in the lines of the following for xorg.conf
| Code: |
Load "dri"
Load "glx"
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
|
Hope this helps

no,when you have video card drivers installed you don`t have to load DRI module

| Is your monitor running on a refresh rate of 130? Then you probably have vsync enabled for your drivers. |

damn, I thought the only way to get a good 3D game to work properly was by loading DRI.
Sorry for the misinformation and thanks for the tip!  |

if your cards driver is installed and glx is loaded and xorg.conf file is configured properly, you get best performance out of your video card!
You welcome!

So If I get this right (might as well abuse your time now that I have your attention  )
If I have a ATI card and I
1) emerge media-video/ati-drivers
2) add fglrx to my xorg.conf
Then, I should not need to have the following in xorg.conf?
| Code: |
Load "dri"
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
|
Should direct rendering still be enabled when we run glxinfo?
Thanks for your time.

| No, only nVidia doesn't load dri. The reason is that nVidia kinda used their own implementation rather than the traditional one, so they only need glx. If you have an ATi card, you still load dri. |

First and foremost, turn off composite. It will guaranteed slow down your OpenGL.
| Quote: | | Is it possible that it has something to do with agppart or nvagp? |
Yes, it is very possible. Do you have IOMMU enabled in yoru kernel? AGPGART? Have you tried disabling both and using the NvAGP? Personally, I found the best speeds from my 6600GT with IOMMU, but your mileage may vary.
| Quote: | | Maybe using older driver will fix it? |
While an older driver might appear to have better performance, it usually isn't the case.
| Quote: | | Must i use other options? |
I'd definitely turn off composite. It doesn't look like you have it configured quite right, anyway, as you've mispelled Composite. What could be happening is due to composite, you're using software rendering and not even realizing it. Turn it off completely and see fi your scores improve. Also remember that glxgears is *not* a benchmark application and is unreliable, at best, and completely wrong, at worst. I'd recommend using something like Enemy Territory as a benchmark.

thx for the answers, i will try it after the WE, because i must work. At monday i will know what happens when i disable composit and compiling IOMMU and AGPGART. Can you please post where i can find the things which i should compile in? thx.

Just out of curiousity, I'm going to presume that GART is really more of a logical feature, and not tied to the AGP bus. Thinking back a few years, I remember seeing work on a PCI-GART to support some ATI cards. So I presume a PCI-E graphics card still needs a GART, even though there is no AGP bus.
Incidentally, I haven't done a thorough job of this stuff yet. I just got the nvidia driver and glx running last night. I realize that glxgears isn't much of a benchmark, but I am disappointed in the performance.
Kids' 1.5 year old system:
AthlonXP 2600+, nForce2, nVidia 5700LE
Wife's and my new system:
Athlon64, 3000+, nForce4, nVidia 6200 (not TC)
Using glxgears, default size, the old computer gets 2400 fps and the new one gets 1770 fps.
A bit disappointing, as on more sophisticated benchmarks I expected significant improvement. I didn't expect basic benchmarks to suffer.
OTOH, I've done NO tuning whatsoever, yet. This was even a default genkernel build. I used opengl-update to enable the nvidia glx.

I enabled some of your options to see if the same thing would happen to me. glxgears then an a couple of hundred fps faster (this may have been as a result of only have that one app open) But now my desktop is running like shit.
All i ever have is the option | Code: | | Option "RenderAccel" "true" |
and it works great. |

Glxgears is by no means a performance benchmark. I have a 6200, a 440Mx and a 4200Ti and even though the 440Mx crushes the 6200 as far as glxgears is concerned, when it comes down to games, it is no match for the 6200. The true benchmark is games, because (surprise), they are what you use your gfx card for...

hi friends!
weekend was hard but now i am back.
Yes, you'r right. I've mispelled Composite. but if i changed nothing happens. So i desided to turn it off. I think the only thing wich is importent for high performence is the Option "NvAGP" "1" # disable - 0, use nvidias agp - 1 , agpgart -2 , agpgart,nvagp -3
I want to have -3 but i cant get agpgart work. I changed my kernel-config in this way:
| Code: |
Processor type and features --->
[ ] IOMMU support
Device Drivers --->
Character devices --->
<M> /dev/agpgart (AGP Support)
<M> AMD Opteron/Athlon64 on-CPU GART support
|
on boot I load agpgart amd64_agp and nvidia. I have reemerged nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx. Maked opengl-update and changed in my xorg.conf:
"NvAGP" "2" # disable - 0, use nvidias agp - 1 , agpgart -2 , agpgart,nvagp -3
When i try to start my X the screen keeps black... nothing happens and system freeze..
demsg gives:

Have you tried not using the NvAGP at all, just accept the default?
I haven't done any performance grooming yet - just accepting defaults, and glx runs ok. At the moment, the kids' system, Athlon XP 2600 with nVidia 5700LE runs 2400fps on glxgears, and this system,Athlon64 3000 with nVidia 6200 (non-TC) gets 1770fps. I would have expected it to be significantly faster, but it's still faster than software rendering would have done.
As someone else said, "glxgears isn't a game, and that's where the cards are targeted."
I just finished emerging doom3-demo on this system, looked up how to do the timedemo, and sometime soon will benchmark both systems that way.
Addendum: doom3-demo doesn't have a timedemo. I have doomsday installed, but haven't been able to get it to work yet because SDL-net isn't included in the emulation libraries. If/when that gets resolved, doomsday displays fps.
