Pull: Ryzom in Linux : ATI, NVDIA or others ?

[browserice]

I have an AGP ATI 9600XT video card and been using Linux variants for 1-2 years. During that time, I have come across a limitation of my card: no official ATI support for Linux. Reducing my original plan of using my Windows games under Linux (currently on Ubuntu 8.10). I have low graphic performance.

This is just an intro to the real purpose of this thread. I want to see amongst all who are able to run Ryzom under any kind of Linux, vote which video card you are using and tell us in a reply the Linux O/S you are using.

This is just to get an idea of who is having a better result and which card brand is being used the most.

Ryzom is running fine under Ubuntu with NVidia cards (6600 GT, 7600 GT and 8600 GT).

Debian sid (wine 1.1.13), Nvidia 9800 GT. Use the "Linux Display Driver Version 180.06 BETA" for best 2d/3d performance (the latest stable is crap IMHO).

(PS: Please add your Test results and votes to Ryzom@Appdb.winehq.com)

Hello,

First of all: My Signature isnt correct anymore (if i werent so lazy i would update it )

I run Ryzom Under Slackware 12.2 with a nvidia 9500GT (yes i know its an 8600GT but it was really cheap)

using the 180.35 driver... The Performance is quite OK...
I tried ATi under Linux in the Past (im around with Linux for 10 years now, and the last 2 of them without windoze), but the drivers are still nearly unuseable (for 3d games in Linux).
I was Hoping that the Catalyst 9 Seires would be much better (i always though a major jump in is marked by a new Version number) but i think there is nearly no Progress since 8.whatever

All my mistypes and grammar faults are under GPL, so you can use them for your Post
