I was able to expand the file system with resize2fs to the new size of the disk image after qemu-img resize.

Code: Select all

resize2fs fienix_6.0.1-noboot-r1.img

I updated the "noboot" image on March 8. With this image, I believe you should be able to dd it to a partition, then run "fsck -f -y /dev/partition", then "resize2fs /dev/partition" without the large space requirement.

I think, it could work if I dd it to a large partition but in the superblock on the img itself, there is an entry with a bigger size than the disk image is so it can’t boot from the disk image directly.

Glxgears with Fienix + Mate has cca 1200 FPS and Debian Sid + Mate cca 2200 FPS with the same card. Also my feeling is that fienix desktop is a liitle slower.

Do you have the same experiences?

Nope... I tested with Fienix6, MintPPC, Ubuntu16 and Void, and got the same result (60 FPS) with all of them. The graphics card was a Radeon HD 6450.

Could the difference seen by sailor be related to altivec, as she has a X1000? Whether it is used or not on a certain distro...?

Roland,

Have you tested glxgears with vblank_mode=0?

Code: Select all

vblank_mode=0 glxgears
Thanks,

With that option I get quite different results:

Code: Select all

Fienix6   2000 FPS
MintPPC   2900 FPS
Ubuntu16  2100 FPS
Void      3300 FPS
