Hello,

Could you get that free graphic benchmark I've made ().

And report the result here.

We'll see if (as expected) this device is slow because of it's MediaQ graphic controller.

k im doing that right now i'll post the results in a second.

Alright here are the results

flipscreen
Orange: 5ms
blue:22 ms

Crossfade
Orange: 13ms
Blue: 9ms

512 ColorKeyed Sprites
Orange: 12ms
Blue:10 ms

512 AntiAliased Sprites
Orange:16ms
Blue:15ms

128 Transluscent Sprites
Orange:13ms
Blue:9ms

Rotozoom
Orange:9ms
Blue:9ms

Tunnel
Orange:9ms
Blue:10ms

A file named benchmark.tga has been created in the installation directory of GXmark.

Could you post that file instead of numbers ?

If you don't know how to convert if to GIF or PNG just send me this file at : stephc@int13.net

FYI : the 22ms FlipScreen timing is why your device seem to be slow.

The MediaQ graphic chip is a huge bottleneck for graphics performances..

Axim is relatively slow compared to say Ipaqs but Toshibas are worst of them all...
For example E330 results in this benchmark are:

"This device index = 558"
"Reference index (ipaq 3600) = 1000"

Half the speed of Ipaq 3600. What can I say ?
Devices with MediaQ are a disaster for framebuffer based games.

Of course , in case of Toshiba , there is that aditional "minor" problem for gameres - fsckin button delay.
