Memory - 741.9 MiB
processor - Intel® Celeron(R) CPU 2.93GHz
graphics - R200 (RV280 5960) TCL DRI2
os type - 32 - bit
disk - 76.9 GB
i go to join a server and the game runs slow, most fps i get is 7-8 , but when im specin and outside the map the game runs semi smooth..
im also running on LINUX FEDORA 19 i believe

I had equivalent-ish hardware than that and it ran better.
Memory 504 MB (not MiB)
Processor: Intel t2400 @ 1.83 GHz
Graphics: GM9something
OS WinXP 2003
Disk 58 GB (or something like that)
Disk 2 6 GB (I never used it anyway)
I made trem run mainly off the virtual memory from the hard disk. It took about 3 minutes to load (sometimes timing out of the game before i finish loading the map) but when i'm in, it runs better then my current "better" computer in some places, especially unvanquished. Don't ask my why...
-
well you see i used windows before but i lost my disc for windows so i had to switch to linux and im newbie to this shit lol.....
-
Maybe your graphic settings are too high, but that's still weird...
-
i`ve lowered my graphics and it still runs slow.
-
What kind of internet connection do you have? Perhaps the issue is there. If the settings aren't suited for it, this could explain why the game seems fine as a spectator, but slower while playing.

im running cable and it still runs slow when i spec.
-
like i had no trouble at all when i was running windows xp now that i switched over to linux the games starts to run slow.. no specs has changed since i cswitched over

install the non-free drivers for your graphics card.
-
Where would i download that at?

Okay, so are the game's settings set up for the cable? That's what I meant.
Options > System > Net and Sound
Look for Net Data Rate.

hell if i know, i dont know what brand your card is or what distribution of linux you're running.
when you know those, use your favorite search engine to search "*card brand* *linux distro* non-free drivers" where *card brand* is your graphics card manufacturer, and *linux distro* is, predictably enough, the distribution of linux you have installed.
you might prefix the search with "HOWTO" or attach "tutorial" to the end, if you want step by step directions.
