OpenGL Benchmarking On Linux Reaches New Heights
,----[ Quote ]
| Lightsmark is an OpenGL lighting benchmark (hence its name) that focuses upon
| real-time global illumination and penumbra shadows. This is a benchmark
| that's built around the Lightsprint SDK. Lightsmark 2008 was released this
| morning with a faster engine, improved image quality with per-pixel indirect
| shadows and color bleeding, all GPUs using the same render path, and a
| steadier scoring system. More importantly, however, this is the first public
| release with native Linux support.

AMD Releases Stream SDK For Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| NVIDIA's competition for Stream computing is CUDA, which is the Compute
| Unified Device Architecture, or CUDA for short. CUDA has been supported on
| Linux now for some time and NVIDIA is in the process of bringing PhysX to
| CUDA, for physics acceleration thanks to their acquisition of AGEIA. Intel's
| competition is Ct, or C for Throughput Computing.

AMD Stream SDK Coming To Linux Soon
,----[ Quote ]
| NVIDIA has long supported their CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture)
| technology on Linux for allowing general-purpose code algorithms to be
| executed on the graphics processor, while AMD and their Stream Computing
| support has been absent on Linux. AMD has only been supporting their Stream
| SDK on Windows XP, but this morning we have confirmation that the Software
| Development Kit will be released for Linux in the coming days.
