I ran glxgears again and got 2500 fps :) now that i think about it i think i
had another OpenGL app running at the same time :P. I just tried UT2004 and
can get around 30-35 fps spectating on the convoy level and morpheus3, which
is about as good as Windows gets, so i'm happy.
Thanks for your help.
