err. i got the same fps with it as in windows, but when you have to use ventrilo (thourgh wine) the fps drops 20-30 when someone starts to speak.. :z

I can't get my mic working on Vent with wine - it works for about a second, then dies. Weird as hell, and very annoying.

hmm..have you set the script files right & are your ALSA or OSS settings correct? That's all I know, I hate adjusting when it comes to linux..that's why I switched to windows anyway.. but I got some nice hints from this guide:

I personally think that you've got less recoil @ linux. And tracking at longer distances is MUCH easier because of that. I mean, if somebody shoots me first, on windows I'm pretty sure that I will loose (as long as there isn't much skill difference and at linux, it's a bit easier AFAIK. But smoke is less transparent : (

LOL. recoil has nothing to do with the operating system you are using :)

yeah, it shouldn't. Just like pb should work @ linux -.- Have you tried it? That wasn't only mine impression. Too lazy to make an avi for you, but... well, I'm playing @ linux for pretty long time (1.5 year now) and after trying for a week to play @ windows, I came back to linux

maybe you got no recoil cause ETH comes with ET Linux installer? :D:D:ASD: funny

:D I guess that with ETH you don't have recoil at all, not a smaller one ^^

Never tried it on linux :) Might gonna do it in VMWare :-)

heavy drops on windows, can get max 76 stable on a good day
no problems at all with linux, 333 stable

imo it depends heavily on your system setup. if you use nvidia-cards and dont run any heavy desktop like kde or gnome, imo the fps is a bit better (depends on some other settings too, like which agpgart-interface u use). the config of your running kernel (schedulers, allocators, etc.), xorg-version etc. also matters. if u know what u do or invest some time in learning / tweaking and the hardware fits it will be faster, but if not chances are there that it will run pretty crappy.
