Nouveau driver speed

DuoMaxwell · 07-05-2012, 09:26 AM

Sup, I'm running Linux Mint 13 i686 with the heavily updated Nouveau drivers, Mesa 8.1 and 3.5 Kernel from the Ubuntu "Xorg-Edgers" PPA and while I'm happy to see that Regnum runs at all let alone with everything maxed but the AA and AF settings with Shader Model 2.0 the speed leaves something to be desired since the GPU I'm using is way more grunt then the game requires, an 8800GTS G80 core.

I float between 5~35FPS, is there anything any of you other gearheads can think of that would improve performance? Iirc with the blob I can get into the high 80s consistently with everything maxed including the AA and AF settings on the Shader Model 2 client.
