Title: How to check if 3D acceleration is working?
Post by: SEGStriker on September 25, 2017, 01:03:00 PM

I have ATI Rage 128 on G4 Sawtooth 400 MHz machine. How to check/confirm if 3D acceleration is really working? Something like glxgears or another test?

So, there is no any way to see directly, except to run some game or app that requires it...

there could be an ATI graphics test app... or maybe another 3d benchmark app..
maybe someone else can help you further. cheers
