but they use the standard Xserver

I'll try factorio tonight, now we're opening presents :))

It comes preinstalled with Java 8 Update 111. Extremely nice.

You're dual booting Fedora? Or VM? I was going to try Fedora but was wary over something I heard about it being aggressive about productionizing test/beta features

@thomasnield I'm dual booting. As far as I understand, that's the whole point of Fedora. It's kind of like the beta channel of Red Hat Linux. But these days it's completely stable and good to use as a workstation. It's not experimental, but as evident by the move to Wayland they're pretty quick to jump on new features 🙂 I love it so far. So slick!

All hardware was supported out of the box for my Thinkpad T460p. @thomasnield what was the name of that screen recording software you're using for linux?

This is the first time fonts render perfectly for me in Linux. It's pretty similar to Retina on the Mac actually.

but how does openGL work 🙂

I think the fan is a bit more loud than in Windows though.

@ron I can check something specific if you like?

run the demo of factorio

when in the game switch on the FPS/UPS display

It's running.. Where do I switch on the fps/ups display?

@ron Found it. It seems to be at a steady 30/60 while I move around. Is that OK?

nope

on linux mint with the normal Xserver its 60/60

on a nvidia gtx750ti

I dont think it's discrete graphics in the lenovo, just the onboard crap :)

I can try it on my monster, is has GTX 1060

@ron: what recording software do you use? You record at 60fps, right?

on windows I use bandicam

on linux? cant really remember 🙂

oh wait simplescreenrecorder

Will try that when I get back, walking the dog :)

Love bandicam though, so smooth

if the lenovo has a optimus setup, there are programs for linux that make it switch to the discrete card

Oh?

run this please

lspci | grep VGA
