Hi

OpenGl currently does not have a method of telling how much texture
memory it has from a card, not sure how you can do this through Linux

Regards

Gordon.

Subject: [info-performer] Performer 2.5.1 and texture memory size

Performer 2.5.1 on Linux (and 2.5 for that matter) doesn't seem to report
the correct amount of texture memory on a GeForce 4 card. It shows about
30MB bytes when it should be somewhere around 100MB on a 128MB card. Is this
a bug?

This leads to a question I've had for a while. Is there a standard way to
query texture memory size on Linux? I believe on IRIX it can be done
through the OS but I'm not aware of any way to do it on Linux. Does OpenGL
have any way to query this?

Thanks,
