I don´t care that much as long as what I need works. Which it does for Intel Sandybridge graphics – that to my surprise is even considered suitable for Flightgear. But I also only do light gaming. What works is Supertuxkart at Full HD, pcsx, freedroidrpg and other open source games I tried. But I do not use ego shooters – all I had a glimpse at seemed to brutal and violent for me – so I can´t comment on them. But then now Ivybridge is out which graphics that is about two times faster. I´d also consider articles at phoronix.com regarding hardware support under Linux. If need be I could test whether flightgear works suitable on Sandybridge. But I need a quick guide on what to test as I do not know this game. -- Martin 'Helios' Steigerwald - http://www.Lichtvoll.de GPG: 03B0 0D6C 0040 0710 4AFA B82F 991B EAAC A599 84C7 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
