I'll finish this edit with some questions.ĭoubling ram (albeit shared memory) resulting in less than a 10% gain in performance seems low. I may try to test with framegetter as well. I plan to retest the results adding a fgl_glxgears benchmark and poke around a bit in my nf. If anyone is aware of a cause for something like this let me know.

(driver / xorg / mode lines) The only guess I have is some sort of misconfiguration somewhere because this data is counterintuitive. We can also see that "something" is not making effective use of the added resources, supported by the +10fps spike 128MB+0.I understand this is a very very slight gain, but quite important when viewed in context to the other data.I'm not knowledgeable enough to pinpoint the issue. Using dvd playback in xp as a reference, I'd rate the yahoo hd source 6 out of 10.įrom these results we can clearly see that enabling shared memory improves perforce by more that 100fps.

Playback did not suffer from the choppiness that dvd or mp4 did, but overall image quality suffered from a lack of crispness. Video playback is very choppy, but this may not be video card related as from hd and from dvd video is poor but testing with a streaming source (yahoo hd trailers) yielded better results. These “steps” can be replicated by creating a gradient in gimp leading me to believe hardware “quality” settings may solve this. Defined color “steps” can be seen where smooth transitions should occur. Poor or improperly configured use of shared video memoryĬolor gradients like those seen in the default fc8 wallpaper are not smooth. No clue as to the cause and wondering if it may be harmful? Strange video corruption on shutdown, the same symptoms occur occasionally when restarting x and switching users.The example resembles fedora theme colors but I have witnessed the same striping in the spanning entire spectrum.
