BTW, "trout" is Kris Windsor.<relminator> hey I was asked by someone (Non-FBer)
<relminator> that my game runs at 8 FPS
<relminator> on his laptop
<relminator> it only uses FBGFX
<relminator> True enough, I ran it on my daughter's laptop it ran at like 18 fps
<relminator> it's a 1.6 ghz intel atom machine
<relminator> then I tested it on this comp (a Hitachi 600 mhz celeron with non-updated drivers)
<relminator> it ran at 60 FPS
<trout> atoms can be slow, but that doesn't seem right :O
<relminator> then for kicks I ran it on another comp this time a 233 mhz computer running win98 with just 32mb ram and a 2mb GPU
<relminator> it ran at 40 FPS
<trout> any chance you were running an 8-bit program on win 7 or something?
* relminator shakes head
<relminator> guy ran it on win xp
<relminator> the atom netbook has Xp sp3
<trout> was it an 8-bit program though?
<relminator> Hitachi 600 mhz celeron has 128 mb memory with winXP
<relminator> yeah 8 bit
<relminator> Guy's laptop ann the atom laptop both has 32 bit color desktop
<trout> i'd guess that's the problem, but i don't know why. generally the atom should be able to at least be a 1GHz P3/P4
<relminator> Hitachi celeron has 16bit desktop color
<relminator> 233 MHZ machine has 16 bit colors too
<trout> maybe the atom doesn't support something that makes the 8-bit programs fast? idk :S
<relminator> If I run full screen, on the atom, it runs at full 60FPS
<trout> oh.. that's pretty weird :P
<relminator> Probably, but the guy who asked me has a pentium
<relminator> laptop
<relminator> what are your specs?
<trout> my laptop is an amd turion, but i've run FB on some atom netbooks too :)

<Lemieux> Title: Genso's Junkyard II'
<relminator> It's the FJ resurrection game
<relminator> I don't think it's the desktop bitdepth though as I've ran it at 60 FPS on my 1.6 ghz celeron laptop
<trout> but it's probably related to the atom architecture, not the atom's speed in general
<trout> anyway, it runs fine for me
<relminator> dang!
<trout> :P
<relminator> Time to post this
Any ideas why this happens?
Game is here:

BTW, If I run it fullscreen on the atom machine, it runs at full 60 FPS but jitters a lot.
