Hardware required for high framerate?
I have a quick question about FPS and hardware required.

I installed vdrift on my dev box at work last night (svn : 1636?). Since I was having some issues with my "old" Mac at home I figured I'd try maxing out everything on my "new honkin' box". It's a Dell with 3 GHz Pentium D, some flavour of ATI Radeon with binary drivers, Gentoo Linux, etc., etc.

With everything in the Display -> Advanced tab set the machine comes to a crawl. Is this normal? Or is it the crappy ATI display card (corp standing offer config - I'd much rather run nvidia).

The OpenGL stuff is working correctly according to glxgears/xdpyinfo. I backed off the display to 800x600 and saw marginal improvements. Also the sky was rendered funny (weird green, red etc. textures).

What exactly do we need as a hardware platform to run vdrift with everything "turned on"?
