You're right. optirun32 Google-earth worked.

Your install scripts use VGL_COMPRESS=jpeg , wasn't yuv supposed to be faster. 
With jpeg compression, google earth was a lot slower (even much slower than on 
intel card). I changed compression to yuv and performance is much better.But 
still feels slower than intel card. I will look at the logs etc and send more 
details soon. I will  install turbojpeg package to see if it makes any 
difference.

Hi..

Thanks for your feedback.. try running optirun32 on google-earth instead.. might 
be an 32-bit application...

I installed your package and was able to run "optirun64 glxgears" on Dell XPS 15 

(L502x). It gives me about 1600 fps. Nice!

But "optirun64 google-earth" returns following error:


[VGL] WARNING: VirtualGL attempted and failed to obtain a Pbuffer-enabled
[VGL]    24-bit visual on the 3D X server :1.  If the application
[VGL]    subsequently fails, then make sure that the 3D X server is configured
[VGL]    for 24-bit color and has accelerated 3D drivers installed.
[VGL] ERROR: in glXGetConfig--

Of course, thanks a lot!

Sunil

Hi all...

The subject says the most:

Prime-NG v.2.0 released.. now with automated installer and 3D support on both 
Intel and nVidia..

I finally got it working, with some help from Pigeon... so thanks to him also...

Hope to get some feedback so that I may improve the installer... I have tested 
it as good as I feel I can.. but the still might be some bugs..
