Now that the game DooM 3 is out for linux, I have been wondering.
If someone put in all of DooM 3's dependencies into dsl, wouldn't DooM 3 run faster on it? Since you don't need that much power to run dsl... Just a thought.
I've allways wondered how much RAM you could save up in Windows if you only ran DirectX and the other part of Windows that the games needed to run.
Now that some big games are coming for Linux, isn't this actually possible to do?... Take SuSE for example, it eat some resources, and that are resorces that the hardware hungry game DooM 3 could use.
What do you think all the hardcore gamers would say if DSL could run DooM 3 with a 5 or 10% performance boost contra Windows / Heavy linux distro? It would definitly be noticed.
The consoles don't have that much power if you put them up against high end computers, still they run the games with some decent effects, and PS2 at least, don't have to run anything besides the actual game.
Just me thinking loud. Don't know if this is possible or not...
