Running synchronized to the vertical refresh. The framerate should be
approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.

It is running at your monitors refresh rate so that is what you see.

This is what I have .....  my monitor being set to 60Hz

$ glxgears
Running synchronized to the vertical refresh.  The framerate should be
approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
303 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.479 FPS
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.937 FPS

  thank you so much

At least for my intel laptops, I can get a more useful measurement with this:

Code: [Select]

vblank_mode=0 glxgears
On 64-bit PCLinuxOS I have to use:

Code: [Select]

vblank_mode=0 fgl_glxgears
Galen

I get no difference in output

Code: [Select]

$ vblank_mode=0 glxgears
Running synchronized to the vertical refresh.  The framerate should be
approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
302 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.363 FPS
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.952 FPS

If I open the Nvidia Display Settings, select OpenGL settings, and untick the 'Sync to VBlank' box the non-synced frame rate will be displayed.

Code: [Select]

$ glxgears
34810 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6961.898 FPS
35292 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7057.892 FPS
34341 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6868.111 FPS
