Hi,
To solve some Google Earth 4.3 issues on my Feisty machine, I want to make sure all 3D options are ON.
How can I see and change my 3D settings in Feisty?
Thanks,
Udi

glxinfo | grep 'direct rendering'
yes means that everything is OK
If it is no then post what video card do you have?

I got a yes, but I was looking for something more like dxdiag.
Thanks anyways,
Udi

You can just use glxinfo to get information about acceleration. From what I read this DxDiag handles more things than just acceleration.
Try this commands
glxinfo - acceleration
lshw - everything about your hardware (probably you should run it with sudo)
lspci - list all pci cards
uname -a - linux version, hostname and so on
lshal - list hal information (a lot of hardware is used on GNU+Linux via hal)
xrandr - show monitor settings

Thanks man, I'll use them.
My current problem is a Google Earth bug and not Ubuntu related. AFAICT.
Cheers
