Didn't bother to investigate what went wrong, if something really hung or if the processor was just taking it's sweet time. I now compiled on a laptop, Pentium-M 1.73GHz, took a bit more than 15 minutes.

Amazing improvements in C-Ray. Maybe I should recommission my netbook as a rendering node It's not like it does anything else other than gather dust...

Before:
Code:OpenGL vendor string: Tungsten Graphics, Inc OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 945GME x86/MMX/SSE2 OpenGL version string: 1.4 Mesa 8.0.3
Code:OpenGL vendor string: VMware, Inc. OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on i915 (chipset: 945GME) OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 8.1-devel OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20
Next step, Need for Speed 4 in wine. Didn't even start with the gallium driver, just threw an error. So I guess I'll be sticking with the classic driver, no matter how cool "OpenGL version string: 2.1" looks
ZootNerper: You have a CedarView machine with PowerVR graphics, while what's being tested here is Diamondville, with Intel graphics. Your issues have nothing to do with the Atom processor, it's all about graphics. And the next architecture, ValleyView, won't have PowerVR graphics anymore.Last edited by Gusar; 03 July 2012, 05:55 AM.

How about a comparison of the 330 and N570 ? It would be nice to see how they do...

You got it to run?
Hi,
I have one of these crappy little Atoms in an ASUS 1101HA. Even running XP it couldn't do video. I can install Ubuntu 12.04 if I put up with half the screen missing and then it won't boot. Back to 10.10 for me till 12.10. (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ux/+bug/944929)
I use it as a server/downloading machine and that's it. Naff all use to man nor beast.
Except I'll never buy an Atom again whatever the future brings.
