i said that my video card is not able to run newer ubuntu distros, (ati drop
assistance to older v.card with driver)
also ubuntu, for what i know is deep fat, have so much inside and probably
is not so fast as this one (that is really really faster in my old pc)
Yesterday i remove another ubuntu to a friend of mine (clan mate, also)
and he can move to 640x480 in safe mode (ubuntu) to 1200x700 (circa dont
remember exactly the res) with sound (sound lag indeed !) and all gfx and
weather eyecandies on...
That's another game with eyecandies on!
update: also my brother (also a clanmate too) install pclinuxos (removing
windows
) and his old pc can play the game better...
probably this distro (like many others) have minimal "sideeffect" and
minimal "others service" activated by default, instead distro a la
"all-service-active-and-running" like ubuntu (and many others)
have... so for having a emergence distro that run regnum fast i suggest
this one... at the moment we are 3 happy players (now)
(n.b.: i know that ubuntu can be tweaked to run really faster than
the actual "as is" iso , but this can't be done without blood and swet,
and i really have not the time to do the tweak on all friends that i
convert to linux...)
i am an old posix sysadmin and i would gladly have slack only on my home..
but my wife prefer ubuntu so i've to find a middle way (pb? where we usually fight?
) and apparently this weird distro do the job...
to arafails: tnx for the suggestion, really don't know this and i've already
done the change.. 32 bit so and gooo
and with mesa i would be able to let regnum do the work..
