About tinyGL: the homepage says it's only a subset, but I'm more concerned with speed - it claims to be fast even though it's a software renderer. What do you get from glxgears with it? ;)

I can't check this anymore since black smoke and burnt smell came out of the power supply of my P2 computer I use(d) for DSL (I'm feeling so frustrated, this old stuff had become my main computing station!)

But I remember the examples were running smoothly although those contained only a limited amount of polygons. The visual quality was pretty bad compared to Mesa.

I'm just wondering, for size it would be perfect for DSL, but if there's no utility..

For comparison, I get 230 glxgears fps on software Mesa rendering with a top Core 2 Duo :p

Hi guys!

I'm sorry to hear what happened to your old box florian. I hope you can get restarted with DSL ASAP.

Curaga: How much RAM do you have on that machine? Pretty much I guess.

Have fun with this incredible nice distro,
meo

It has 2 gigs. Should it affect 3d rendering?
