On my laptop I also had some weird results in some game depending on when I started it. In my case I suspected that the GPU wasn't at the maximum clock speeds yet. Depending on what GPU you are using you might also have '2d' and '3d' clocks. Try to force it to maximum clocks using nvidia-settings.
Thanks, I'll try.
Looks like nvidia-settings can only read the clocks, not set them? nvidia-settings -q GPUPerfModes -t; nvidia-settings -q GPUCurrentPerfLevel -t; nvidia-settings -q GPUCurrentClockFreqs -t displays their current value.
Setting them appears to require changing kernel module parameters (either in xorg.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/mumble). Related pages: http://tutanhamon.com.ua/technovodstvo/NVIDIA-UNIX-driver/ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24/+b...
