Talk:GPU-Performance

From KDE Wiki Sandbox

Would it make sense to remove all the old nvidia updates and provide a link to their "current drivers" page as well as their "if you have performance issues" page? that way this page would not always lag behind the up-to-date beta drivers.

Sounds reasonable. Feel free to do it :-) --annew 12:31, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Fedora 10 and xorg.conf (for some users)

Hi there,

I just learned about this from the Fedora KDE mailing list tonight, and thought it'd be useful to note for other Fedora 10 KDE users that visit this page.

Here's a stab at contributing to this page (below):


Fedora 10 and xorg.conf (for some users)

Some of the tweaks mentioned in this article are targeted at a file normally found in most distros at:

 /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Some users on Fedora 10, however, may find that this file is no longer present by default (depending on their card- anyone with more details on this please feel free to elaborate), and so it must be re-created. To do this, either:

GUI-friendlier method:

  • install and run the 'system-config-display' package (hitting Ok after you're done configuring will generate the 'xorg.conf'

Less GUI-friendly method:

  1. open a command prompt
  2. switch to runlevel 1 by running the command (as root): init 1
  3. run 'Xorg -configure' as root (once you're done, this will generate the 'xorg.conf' file
