Linux and Video Game Trends
,----[ Quote ]
| Recent developments in Linux video games shows a stunning improvement in
| support, not only by a better library of games for the operating system, but
| also for games not intended for Linux. Linux may finally gain some publicity
| if the developers continue to improve not just the video games, but also for
| the applications needed by the games.

Quake 4 On XP, Vista, & Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| However, I spent the extra time and while I was at it had run three
| Quake 4 v1.3 benchmarks in XP, Vista, and Fedora Core 6 (2.6.20 kernel).
| The hardware used was a modest AMD Sempron setup with a NVIDIA GeForce
| 6150 and the NVIDIA 1.0-9755 drivers (the hardware chosen was to
| represent the more common Linux user rather than using an octal-core
| setup). The NVIDIA driver on Vista was 100.65 while the XP version
| was 93.71. Below is the average frame-rate from each test on each
| operating system.
