AMD Catalyst vs. Radeon Gallium3D On Linux 3.1

[smitty3268]

I still want to see a Doom 3 benchmark to be done.

God yes. And RTCW, UT2003, Q4, Unigine, plus a couple wine tests - maybe Portal 2.

I still don't understand why Michael refuses to do these tests. I can guarantee they'd bring more visitors to his website than testing Q3 Arena.

Because Michael would have to enable patented features for those games to work. And let's face it, open drivers are unusable without patented features, therefore Michael can only test mediocre apps. That's pretty much what his articles say if you can read between the lines...
