Hi, Does anybody run flightgear successfully on amd64? When I start (under Gnome as well as under fluxbox) a window opens and everything seems to run normal, but when using the mouse it has 2sec. delay and cpuload is 100%. Running top shows xfree86 running mad. System is Sarge, using xfree86's mga driver for Matrox G550. Rainer
Rainer,I am experiencing this with lots of Linux games. They all tend to take 100% CPU. My guess is that's due to their "draw" function, which is looped with no regard to frames per second.
Your issue with flightgear seems to be different, though.Although some games use 100% cpu you can still "work" on that system. How much % cpu does flightgear take on a 32bit system?
