this kind of remembers me on "here is NVidia Titan with GL 4.5. let's try xonotic to see benchmark of how well it performs"

p.s. i'm not making fun out of you, i'm just pointing out that making fun can be easy when goal is taken out of context. having absolutely free hw is a valid goal for many cases, but you can't make gaming machine based on it

Honestly, telling people to enable compiz to check if 3D acceleration is enabled seems a bit... off, unless the guide was for newbies, which clearly isn't.

Using mesa-utils:

glxinfo | grep render

is a lot better than simply enabling compiz.

I fail to see what's wrong with that. Michael does benchmarks, that's what I'd expect him to do and why I visit this site. I'm sure that's exactly the same reason others visit this site (excluding a few users who just come here to troll). Xonotic may not use GL 4.* features, the benchmark is still nontheless useful.
