I have here one of those netbooks currently on sale in Germany (which surprisingly all share the same configuration), an Atom 1.66 with Intel N10/GMA3150 chipset. Much to my surprise, this 2010 model runs gzdoom much slower than that other very old NV11 (GF2MX400) or NV34 (GF5200 IIRC) graphics card I have in my desktop. Today I tried prboom just for a test, and which run much more agreeable. I assume that gzdoom is using a GL feature that the Intel chipset does not have and which is subsequently rendered by Mesa in software.

I found that using "Texture filterung: None" and "Texture filtering: Linear" restore the framerate to something agreeable. All the remaining modes - Mipmap, Bilinear and Trilinear let things go down the drain.

Are you using either Windows Vista or 7 by chance?

The difference may be that GZDoom starts with a 32 bit framebuffer / 32 bit depth-stencil buffer by default. And seeing the overall crappiness of this hardware it may well be badly supported.

@Eruanna: The startup log is clearly indicating Linux/Unix.

This whole thing sounds like a bad driver to me. Yes, Intel's hardware is bad but not this bad.

I missed that. I don't know how I did. Anyway my idea for a quickfix definitely won't work in Linux.
