Driver comparison Linux vs. Vista (Chrome 400/500 Series)

,----[ Quote ]
| After two released Linux drivers, I decided to compare those drivers to the 
| current Windows Vista driver. Here are the first results, there are more to 
| come!  
| 
| [...]
| 
| Sometimes S3 Graphics really scares me and this is one of those situations: 
| It's already rather unusual that the performance of a Linux driver is more or 
| less equal to the Windows drivers, but that the Linux drivers offers a far 
| better performance is really scaring. And keep in mind that S3 Graphics 
| doesn't really care that much about Linux at all!.

| Considering the hardware is identical, that difference is HUGE. And all 
| because of all the screwups Microsoft have made, Vista might well be the 
| biggest! (I should really test Windows XP. I would guess it's about 10-15% 
| faster than Vista, but still 15% or more slower than Linux)

ATI: Linux vs. Windows Vista

| Wow! We were completely blown away when our final results came in and the 
| Linux 8.42.3 driver had outperformed Windows Vista with Catalyst 7.10 in 
| Enemy Territory: Quake Wars. It wasn't just a neck-and-neck race but Linux 
| was about 10 frames per second faster when running at 1280 x 1024 and 1680 x 
| 1050.
