I used povlab quite a bit in my dos days, I also ran it a while in dosemu..but thats slow.
You quickly get nice results with it, its verry nice for 3d webart & stuff.
A cstrike client would rule (yeah rite it works with wine...but), and the upcomming tribes II client will also rock.
Hardware support needs improvement. ie. G400 is out for a year now, and still sucks a bit, but hey its still in devel so....altough 1600x1200 @ 24 bps Divx playback with 40 %cpuload on celery 850 trough xv with mplayer (based on aviplay ) kinda rocks.
Alot of the people who don't fear normality would be glad for the extra space.
so pack your stuff, your posting on slashdot ! damn outcast.
The Netherlands is kinda relaxed country to live in, like in the best choice between bads.
"Those graphics blow the PC version away. "
bweheheh ow cum on, with the same textures and engine modifications on the pc version it would
look the same on pc. or better with higher res.
The DC framerate was kinda...BWAHAHAH.
DC is no 3dfps platform btw. (although mice and keyboards are on the way I believe)

..dont like each other.
My shogo demo (1st and the 2nd) didn't render anything exept for the sky. 2nd did a zbuffer troubled map but still no models.
Parsec also still doesn't work, no weapon models/eye candy/ship models are rendered.
hell, dri is in developement, but a year after pro linux matrox' g400 release one would expect at least something workable....well NOT.
Only gamers need such power..but..there havent been worthwile new game concepts since the intro of q2 multiplayer , all q2 engine based games perform ok on current 800mhz cpu's wuth decent 3d accelerator.
I wanna try these baby's out, cant wait to get home heheh.
This WILL rock for Blender addicts...
I have this 22"inch tube, It really looks amazing these sample anims of bats nd stuff:0
Hw accel at 1600 for modeler and desktop on 17"
hell I 'm gonna suxor GIMP...this is gonna roxor:)
Is it worth the trouble trying 4.01 DRI for 3D with Matrox G400 ? Can normal users have full 3d accel with it ? the readme said multitexturing is not implemented yet because of buggy code.
Or should I stick 2 Utah GLX (and X 3)for a while ?
BTW I noticed the same texture corruption with the latest stable windows drivers for the g400 as I noticed with some builds of the glx code. (like with SOF demo etc)Wrong Textures are rendered or theyre shifted. What causes that ?

Argh, what a dillweed remark;) Slack roxors,simply do a base install and then homebrew compiler / binutils and your set for all other tarballs from the progs u like to install.
Slackware 7 / 7.1 are verry mature distros comparable to all other major ones that seem to suck more, never used them, never will.

Sorry for being incomplete.
Celery 450, 128 megz, Max (32 megz) at win98 settings,2x AGP , direct rendering.
got no exact timedemo results..but I gave up hardcore DM playing some time ago since its so borring after a while, and thus don't need 100+ fps timedemo's annyway.
I got a Team fortress screenie over here.

Yepperz , G400max r00lz baby !
Fire up q3a's mod q3f with fulldetails, texture slider 2tha max 800*600 ( on a 22" tube ) and still playable !
love my max.
But how do I change brightness in Q3a...mesa environement vars have no ffect...
All we need is the XF4 module, dual head support, and, non root direct hardware accel. ( I saw a guy using a perl script for this uid stuff )

Thats what I always do.
Linux sure rules that already since the Qw era.

And ethical responsible from a linux point of view.

annyway, nuff said.
Theoretically at least.
This would trigger the same shit as the 1st man/woman who applied violence did.
In reality..hmm one could at least make it impossible for him to continue his activities.
