my first linux attempt

[drazah]

well i managed to install fedora 6 , recompile kernel for 1000fps successfully ( first time linux ) in under 5 hours i added 9 bots on the css server and joined myself i get a solid 988 fps (never drops) i checked ps aux and the cpu usage was at 28-30% usage on a old pentium D 3.0ghz 512 mb ram

[drazah]

anyone know how to make the server run in the background ,screen w/e on fedora 6?

[jameshaigh]

Make sure screen is installed first, then do:

Code:

screen <yourcommand>

..then press CTRL+A+D to "exit" the screen (although it will still run in the background). You can log out of the shell and it will still be running.

When you want to return to the server, just type: screen -r into your shell and it'll appear again. From there you can interact with it as normal.

It can also be useful to put your startup line into a file (e.g runserver.sh) so that you don't have to type it all out each time.

yeah got it , thanks

is there anything i can do to get the FPS higher? so far i can get 988FPS in srcds (cs source)

i know a guy who runs the same distro "fedora 6" he can get 997

[jameshaigh]

I'm not really sure; you shouldn't need more than 988FPS anyway

[Spartanfrog]

Yeah you dont even need anything higher then 512 lol

[drazah]

yeah i know , its just me wanting to mess around and learn linux stuff

[Spartanfrog]
