Just tested a GTX 980Ti on loan from Steve in my i7 tower. Everything works absolutely fine. D03 booted with no issues, 2D acceleration is great (DVD VOBs running fully smoothly). For 3D Gearbox gives 2667 FPS, Teapot runs at 466 FPS, GLexcess runs fast and Doom3 is completely smooth
@deadwood - I only have one laptop and NVidi card works on it with 3D acceleration. On the other hand it does not work on @AMIGASYSTEM's laptop. It does work on Neil's laptop. So so far it is 2-1.

@deadwood - The output of "user error" will keep printing in the CON: unless you register streams to NIL. What was solved in D01 is that this output was causing a crash.
With regards to ingame glitches you need to disable shadows. Other settigs can be kept at high quality.
I've tried all the possible settings but the glitches are still there, however they concern only the Linux version, not AROS which looks absolutely fine.
I made a couple of screenshots, 1024x768 as window size at the highest details. Quite strange that on Linux is much slower than on AROS, on the latter I'm still able to play it in somewhat way even using 1920x1080 full screen. What framerate do you guys have?

I'm getting the same issues on my config, also the mouse is sludging on menu screens.
Interesting thing: I have the game installed in my Lubuntu 24 partition as well - dhewm3 version, I tried the original from Steam which I bought in the past decade but it doesn't run because I'm using the latest Nouveau driver and can't install the original Nvidia (my GTX 560 Ti is too old for the modern kernels, too). I found the AROS version is better, faster (50-100%) and without rendering glitches as instead I'm seeing on Linux. Initially I thought it was caused by the bad gfx card (fortunately I paid it very few pounds), but it seems Nouveau drivers aren't very good actually...
I'll post some screenshots later.

Observation on 2D acceleration; with 32 bit on my i7 3.5 Hz + gf 8400 I needed to set quite a high cache to get smooth DVD vob file playback, but on 64 bit, i7 again + GTX970 no chache at all is needed for fully smooth playback, anf that's with the GLexcess demo and AB3D running at the same time . Now I just need to work out how to install Doom3 demo packs...
Cheers,
Nigel.
P.S. the reason I remove the cache setting (this is running from CLI) is I was getting a cache thread error on quitting or changing files, but I'll look into if that's reprodceable after this weekend's show.
I copied the entire contents of the NVidia-49.7 folder to the same locations on AROS One.
Did I do something wrong? Do I absolutely have to use a 3.x USB flash drive?
HP ENVY 15 GeForce GTX 850M with your build (I only added noacpi)—I have “cat's eyes”; it only boots in 3 VESA mode.
With the ACER Aspire 5920, I tried running Sashimi with some difficulty (even the shell freezes the system after a few commands), but unfortunately, Sashimi doesn't have time to print anything.
